Secondary Servers

One or more secondary servers may participate in a Sybase IQ multiplex configuration.

One secondary server acts as a designated failover server, which is assigned the coordinator role if the current coordinator cannot continue.

Secondary servers can be either read-only servers (reader servers) or read-write servers (writer servers).

• Adding a Secondary Server
  Add a secondary server to the multiplex server.
• Dropping a Secondary Server
  Remove a secondary server from a multiplex server. You can drop the designated failover server only if it is the only secondary server in the multiplex.
• Synchronizing a Secondary Server
  Synchronization updates a secondary server with respect to the coordinator.
• Including an Excluded Secondary Server
  Include a previously excluded secondary server when the excluded server's shutdown period is over.
• Excluding a Secondary Server
  Exclude a secondary server from the multiplex if it will be shut down for an extended period of time.
