Procedure 8-8 To reinstantiate a redundant database using the
5620 SAM client GUI
Perform this procedure to re-establish redundancy after a database failover or similar
maintenance activity. This procedure reinstantiates the former primary database as
the new standby database.
When automatic database reinstantiation is enabled, a failed manual reinstantiation
attempt does not affect the reinstantiation timer. If a manual reinstantiation is
successful, the 5620 SAM does not attempt a subsequent reinstantiation.
Note — You must configure this parameter the same way on the
standby and primary main servers.
Note — When you stop the primary main server, a switchover to the
standby main server occurs.
