Cluster
When the Monitor Agent fails over, it must repoll all the monitored agents to ascertain their current
status. This may take a few moments, depending on the number of agents being monitored.
However, no action is necessary on your part as the Monitor Agent starts on the next node in the
cluster.

Managing the Monitor Agent in a Linux
Explanation
Specify the name of the Cluster Resource object for the Monitor
Agent, along with its secondary IP address.
For more information, see
Agent Partition and Secondary IP Address," on page
Specify a GroupWise partition where there is a domain database from
which the Monitor Agent can gather information about agents to
monitor. Also provide the domain name and directory.
For more information, see
Access during Monitor Agent Installation," on page
If you want the Monitor Agent to be able to fail over independently,
specify the IP address and message transfer port number of an MTA
with which the Monitor Agent can communicate, as an alternative to
accessing a domain database.
For more information, see
Monitor Agent to Access after Installation," on page 202
List the nodes in the cluster where the Monitor Agent could fail over.
For more information, see
Appropriate Failover List for the Monitor Agent," on page
List the cluster resource information for the GroupWise partition
where the domain is located so that the Monitor Agent can access its
domain database for information about agents to monitor.
For more information see,
Resource Information for the Monitor Agent," on page
Step 4 to verify that the Monitor Agent has stopped.
