Switchover characteristics of Route Control clients
Functionality
If the master Route Control server fails, the Route Control clients are automatically switched
over to the redundant Route Control server.
Reactions during switchover
During a switchover, a message window is displayed on the screen of the Route Control client
indicating a switchover. The Route Control client cannot be operated during this time. The
message window closes and the Route Control client can be operated again only when the
switchover from the failed Route Control server to the redundant Route Control server is
complete.
Note
The route can be controlled from a Route Control faceplate during the switchover of a Route
Control server.
