Enabling Failover on Domains

Use the Failover Configuration page (IB_AMM_FAILOVER) to enable failover on domains.

This example illustrates the Failover Configuration page.

To set up domain failover:

1. Access the Failover Configure page (PeopleTools, and then Integration Broker, and then Service Operations Monitor, and then Administration, and then Domain Status and click the Set Up Failover link).

2. Select the Enable Failover box.

3. In the IB Failover Time (minutes) field, specify the number of minutes that can pass without the domain registering itself before the failover should commence

4. (Optional.) To implement dynamic secondaries, select the Dynamic Secondary Option.

5. (Optional.) In the Failover Group field, enter a numeric value to specify a group to which a domain belongs.

   A value of 1 indicates that the domain is the first backup domain; a value of 2 indicates that the domain is the second back-up domain if the first backup domain fails; and so on.

6. In the Failover Priority field, enter a numeric value to specify the priority for a back up domain in the failover configuration.

   A value of 1 indicates that the domain is the first backup domain; a value of 2 indicates that the domain is the second back up domain; and so on.

7. (Optional.) In the Email_TO field, specify the email addresses of people to whom the system sends a notification about the domain failure if it occurs.

   Separate multiple email addresses with a semicolon.

8. (Optional.) In the Email_CC field, specify the email addresses of people who receive copies of the domain failure notification.

   Separate multiple email addresses with a semicolon.

9. Click the Save button.
