Resuming normal companion mode  Troubleshooting Failover for Veritas Cluster

Chapter 10: Configuring Linux Adaptive Server for Failover on Veritas 2.1

Dropping companion mode

To drop companion mode, issue:

sp_companion companion_name, "drop"

Dropping companion mode is irreversible; you must reconfigure the companion servers before they fail over in a high availability system and retain all the functionality that Sybase Failover provides. However, the companion server is still monitored by the HA agent. Before dropping companion mode, you must first disable the agent to monitor Adaptive Server. Issue the following command:

hares -modify Sybase_resource_name Enabled 0

To drop the companion mode, issue sp_companion ... drop.

For example, to drop the companionship with primary companion MONEY1, connect to secondary companion, PERSONNEL1 and issue:

sp_companion "MONEY1", "drop"
