How do I test main server and database redundancy switches?
Overview
In a redundant NFM-P system, performing regular main server and database redundancy tests is important for the following reasons:
-
to ensure that main server and database redundancy functions correctly and responsively
-
to identify conditions that may interfere with an NFM-P upgrade
Note: It is strongly recommended that you perform a main server activity switch and a database switchover monthly, or at least quarterly, if a monthly test is not possible. For information about performing a server activity switch, see How do I perform a server activity switch? . For database switchover information, 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?.
