Failover is the process whereby jobs that were being operated on the active node are taken over by the standby node when an error occurs on the Symfoware Server node.
To run failover operation linked with MSCS on Symfoware Server, you must set up Symfoware Server and register services and applications in MSCS.
To set up failover operation, use the failover cluster management tool.
The failover cluster management tool refers to the following tool:
Windows Server(R) 2003 or Windows Server(R) 2003 R2
Cluster Administrator
Cluster Administrator is an application that manages clusters on the local machine and remote machines.
The procedure for setting up failover operation can be performed using the following steps:
Set up Symfoware Server.
Register the Symfoware Server service in MSCS.
The flow for setting up Symfoware Server and failover operation is shown below.
