As required, perform server activity switches and database switchovers.

1. For main servers:

   1. View the status of the primary and secondary servers to verify the redundancy status is Up; see How do I view the NFM-P system redundancy status? .

   2. If required, verify the redundancy status of the NFM-P auxiliary server; see How do I view the NFM-P auxiliary server status? .

   3. Perform a manual activity switch to reverse the primary and standby roles; see How do I perform a server activity switch?.

   4. Validate the updated redundancy status; see How do I view the NFM-P system redundancy status?.

2. For main databases:

   1. View the redundancy status of the primary and secondary database to verify the redundancy status is Up; see How do I view the NFM-P system redundancy status?.

   2. As required, specify the behavior of how database switchovers are executed; see How do I configure main database switchover behavior?.

   3. As required, perform a database switchover; see How do I perform a main database switchover using the NFM-P client GUI? or How do I perform a main database switchover using a CLI script?.

   4. As required, enable or disable automatic database realignment; see How do I enable or disable automatic database realignment?.

   5. Validate the updated redundancy status; see How do I view the NFM-P system redundancy status?.

After a main database failover, re-establish redundancy between the standby and primary databases; see How do I reinstantiate the main database from the client GUI? and How do I reinstantiate the main database from a CLI?.
