Note –

The HA agent provides a fault monitor for the DCE component only. If the SWIFTAlliance Access stops, it will not be restarted automatically. This behavior was explicitly requested by SWIFT. It will allow users unfamiliar with the Sun Cluster software to operate the application as if it is not running on a cluster. The HA agent provides the start, stop, failover, and switchover functionality. This means that when a node fails, the other node will automatically start the application.
