Managing Failover Packages
Viewing Failover Packages
Note This section applies only if you have purchased a high-
availability NAS solution.
All storage is controlled by packages. Packages are the smallest units of
failover in the cluster. In other words, if a package resource (storage or
network) fails, the package will be failed over to another node. Each package
and its associated resources are monitored independently. This allows failures
that are limited to a single package to be handled without affecting the state
of other packages.
To view failover packages:
1 I n the Command View NAS web interface, click the Storage tab.
2 Navigate down the tree and select Failover Packages.
A table displays the following information for every failover package:
Column Description
Package Name A string of 40 characters that cannot include spaces, forward slash (/),
backslashes (\), or asterisks (*). Identifies the package when you view its
status or operate or modify it.
Package Status D isplays whether the package is starting, has stopped, has failed over, or is
inactive.
Failback Policy The Failback Policy is used when the package is not running on its primary
server even though the primary server is capable of running the package.
■ If you set the Failback Policy to Automatic, the package will always
attempt to move back to the primary server.
■ If you set the Failback Policy to Manual (default), the package will not
change servers until you manually fail it back.
Auto Start Enabled or disabled. If Auto Start is enabled, the package automatically
starts once the server is running on the cluster.
