Understanding the Display
The Failover Control Center’s main window controls three types of failover activities:
Identifying what the target is monitoring
Configuring failover operations
Monitoring failover activity
Identifying what the target is monitoring
The two main areas of the Control Center screen are the
Target Machine
selection and the
Monitored Machines/Names
pane. When a target machine is selected, any source machines and IP addresses that are currently being monitored are
displayed in an expandable and collapsable tree view. Selecting a different target machine will update the tree to reflect the
machines and IP addresses that the selected target is monitoring.
Configuring failover operations
The operational buttons located along the right side of the Failover Control Center window access failover configuration
dialog boxes and initiate failover processes.
