Modify server properties
To modify the properties for a server in the cluster, select that server on the Servers
window, right-click, and select Properties. Then make your changes on the Server
Properties window.
Server: Enter the name or IP address of the server.
Server Severity: When a server fails completely because of a power failure or other
serious event, HP Scalable NAS attempts to move any virtual hosts from the network
interfaces on the failed server to backup network interfaces on healthy servers in the
cluster.
After the server is restored to normal operation (for example, the power is restored
and the server is rebooted), it is by default made available to host virtual hosts. If a
failure of the server caused failover of virtual hosts, recovery of that server will cause
the same set of virtual hosts to automatically “failback” to network interfaces on the
original server.
There are two settings for Server Severity:
AUTORECOVER. This is the default behavior. Virtual hosts automatically fail back to
network interfaces on the original server after it is restored to normal operation.
NOAUTORECOVER. After the server recovers, it is not made available to host virtual
hosts. Instead, HP Scalable NAS disables the server. (You will need to re-enable the
server with the Management Console or mx utility). The NOAUTORECOVER setting
can be useful when integrating HP Scalable NAS with custom applications, where
additional actions may be necessary after server recovery and before the server is
made available to host services provided by virtual hosts.
