You can reverse the primary and secondary server roles before a planned outage. For example, reverse the roles before bringing the server down for maintenance. To perform this task, log in to the primary server as the root user.
Before you begin
Set up the primary and secondary server roles. Setting up the roles saves all server details, so you do not need to re-enter them when reversing the roles.
On the primary CMS server, run the su - root command and then type the root password to log in as the root user.
Run the cmsadm command on the primary server.
When you can view the administration menu, type 12 to configure HA.
When prompted, type 2 to reverse the roles.
Check the displayed information to verify successful role reversal.
