Fault tolerance

The Fault Tolerance teaming option provides three redundancy control options:
Manual—This setting allows change from a Primary NIC to a Secondary NIC only when
Switch Now is clicked.
NOTE:
The Switch Now option is disabled until Manual is selected, and then OK is clicked.
Fail on Fault—Automatically switches from a primary NIC to a secondary NIC when the
primary NIC fails.
Smart Switch—Allows a member of a team be selected as the preferred Primary Smart Switch
NIC. As long as this NIC is operational, it is always the active NIC. If the NIC fails and it is
eventually restored or replaced, it automatically resumes its status as the active NIC.
NOTE:
HP recommends Smart Switch for fault tolerance.
Detailed information about configuring teams for fault tolerance can be found in the HP Network
Teaming Utility help.
