2.4.2 Standby patrol function

A standby patrol function monitors the condition of the deactivated actual interface of a standby system in NIC switching mode.

This brings the following effects:

Standby patrol starts when activated a system and when processed activation of the corresponding NIC switching mode, and stops automatically when a system stopped or when processed deactivation of the corresponding NIC switching mode. It is possible to operate manually. See "7.10 strptl Command" for starting standby patrol manually and "7.11 stpptl Command" for stopping standby patrol.

See "2.4.3 Automatic fail-back function" for an automatic fail-back function.

Note

This feature is available exclusively for NIC switching mode. Fast switching mode does not have standby interface. Thus, this feature does not apply to the mode.
