The system continuously checks for a switchover situation, as defined in the Is Alive properties, and informs the user according to the defined notification settings. When the system detects a switchover situation, the Perform Switchover Automatically option is checked to determine if there should be an automatic switchover, or only a notification of the situation. In the latter case, switchover may be triggered with the Perform Switchover menu command or toolbar button.
Enter the hostname/IP address of the Replica host to which the Master switches. You can choose only one Replica.
Any time this Name/IP, or Master's Name/IP, is changed, all the switchover properties are reset to their default values.
When this option is On, switchover is initiated automatically if the Master server is down or database failure detected.
After a switchover, this option determines whether replication in the reverse direction would begin automatically.
When set to On, CA ARCserve RHA verifies that the data integrity is kept. If the data is found to be consistent, re-synchronization is avoided and the backward scenario is initiated. However, in DB scenarios when this option is set to On, the reverse replication starts in a suspended state. It is unsuspended only after the database on the Active server has passed all tests typically performed in the Check DB properties in the Is Alive properties.
