Chapter 14: Configuring Adaptive Server for Failover on SGI IRIX

Failing over

IRIX FailSafe monitors the health of the nodes. In the event of a node failure, FailSafe migrates resource groups to the surviving node. Sybase recommends that you read the IRIX FailSafe Administrator’s Guide for more information about configuring and monitoring FailSafe. See http://techpubs.sgi.com for information about health check frequency. The more often you check the node health, the narrower the window between failure and restart. You establish a balance between false alerts and resource consumption.
