LocalController Failure

All LocalController components send heartbeat information to the MultiControllers. If the active MultiController detects that it did not receive a heartbeat from the LocalController, it logs a missed heartbeat. If this time exceeds the timeout period, then the MultiController triggers a failover to the first available standby LocalController using the process described in the following diagram.

Failback is a manual process. To achieve failover, force a failure on the LocalController on Server 3.
