Switchover characteristics of BATCH clients
Functionality
If the master BATCH server fails, the BATCH clients automatically switch to the redundant
BATCH server.
Reactions during switchover
During a switchover, a message window is displayed on the screen of the BATCH client
indicating the switchover. The BATCH client cannot be operated during this time. The message
window closes and the BATCH client can be operated only when the switchover from the failed
BATCH server to the redundant BATCH server is complete.
