Verifying the server status after failover

Last Updated : Dec 14, 2021 |
Prolog information
After triggering a test failover, verify that the previously active Routing Core Server is in alternate mode. You must also check that one of the previously alternate Routing Core Server instances is active and hosts the VIP address.
Before you begin
Trigger a failover.
  1. On Configuration Server, start the SSH session.
  2. To access Routing Core Server, run the following command:
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    ssh mega@<server_IP_address>, where <server_IP_address> is the static IP address of the Routing Core Server.
  3. In the command prompt, run the following command:
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    hostname -I
  4. Verify the server IP addresses in the command output.
    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
    When you run the hostname -I command on the previously active server, the command output does not display the VIP address. The command output displays the VIP address for one of the previously alternate Routing Core Server instances.
