Resuming normal companion mode

To move from suspended mode to normal companion mode:

  1. Make sure both companions are running. As “root”, issue:

    hastatus
    
  2. Change the Critical attribute of the Sybase resource on the primary node to 1. As “root”, issue:

    hares -modify name_of_Sybase_resource Critical 1
    
  3. Resume normal companion mode. From the secondary companion, issue:

    sp_companion primary_companion_name, resume
    

    NoteYou cannot connect clients with the failover property until you issue sp_companion resume. If you do try to reconnect them after issuing sp_companion prepare_failback, the client hangs until you issue sp_companion resume.
