enable ess

Last Updated : Jan 11, 2024 |

Use enable ess to enable a Survivable Core Server. Once a Survivable Core Server cluster is enabled, it attempts to connect to Procr.

Use enable ess from either a main or a Survivable Core Server. A Survivable Core Server may enable only its own cluster ID. When enable ess is run from the main server, any and all cluster IDs may be enabled including the main itself. Care should be taken when using enable ess all.

When a Survivable Core Server is enabled, it removes its translations and reboots. The TEST RESULTS screen is not displayed.

When a main server is enabled, it reboots but does not remove its translations. A TEST RESULTS screen is displayed. The exception is when the enable ess cluster command specifies the cluster ID of the main itself. In that case, the server reboots and no screen is displayed.

After the reboot, the server is in the Survivable Core Server enabled state and will attempt to connect to Procr. If the cluster involves duplicated servers, this process may take slightly longer while the active server informs the standby of its new Survivable Core Server enabled state.
