Switch the Active Management Instance (mgmtActiveSwitch)

The mgmtActiveSwitch command, run from the current standby management instance, results in that instance becoming the active management instance. The original active management instance is stopped if it can be reached.

ttGridAdmin mgmtActiveSwitch [-force]

Options

The mgmtActiveSwitch command has the option:

Option Description

-force

Specifies that the command will take effect even if the management instance from which it is run cannot be clearly identified as the standby management instance or is not ideally eligible to become the active management instance.

Important: Using -force will likely result in substantial data loss. Use only as a last resort.

Examples

% ttGridAdmin mgmtActiveSwitch
This is now the active management instance

Notes

  • This command is typically used if the active management instance has failed.

  • If or when the original active management instance is back up, you can use mgmtStandbyStart to restart it as the standby.

  • All data instances in the grid will automatically failover from the previous active management instance to the new active management instance.
