To enable clients to reconnect to the failed-over companion, add a line to the interfaces file. By default, clients connect to the port listed in the query line of the server entry. If that port is not available, the client connects to the server listed in the hafailover line of the server entry. Here is a sample interfaces file for a primary companion named MONEY1 and a secondary companion named PERSONNEL1:
MONEY1 master tcp ether FN1 4100 query tcp ether FN1 4100 hafailover PERSONNEL1
If this is a symmetric configuration, make the fail over entry for the secondary server:
PERSONNEL1 master tcp ether HUM1 4100 query tcp ether HUM1 4100 hafailover MONEY1
Use dsedit to add entries to the interfaces file. If the interfaces entries already exist, modify them to work for fail over.
See the Utility Guide for information about dsedit.
