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