Backup and Redundancy

Restoring an Offline, Configured Main Application Server to Online Status

608

To restore an offline, configured Main Application Server to online status

1. In the Main area of the Redundancy Configuration Form, use the Configured IP column

to identify the Application Server that failed over or was manually taken over.

Figure 10-29

2. In the row corresponding to the Application Server you would like to restore to an Online

status, click Reverse in the Reverse Take-Over column.

The system performs a Reverse Takeover on the Application Server.

3. In your browser’s address bar, retype the configured IP address of the Application Server

you are restoring.

4. Navigate to the Redundancy Configuration Form (see

page 712

).

5. In the Redundancy Configuration Form, verify that the operation completed successfully.

REQUIREMENTS

Make sure you meet the following conditions before beginning this procedure:

• You have opened iControl for the Backup Application Server (see

page 696

).

• You have navigated to the Redundancy Configuration Form for the Application Server

mentioned in the requirement before this one (see

page 712

).

Note: The row for the Application Server that failed over (or was taken over) should
be yellow and the operational state should be Offline.

Note: Because this operation changes the physical hardware corresponding to the
Main’s IP address, the Redundancy Configuration Form is no longer able to refresh.

Note: The Reverse Takeover operation can take several seconds before completing.
