RE: RE : {bb} failover



I have set both servers as BBPAGERS on all clients' bb-hosts as mentioned below. Do I need to have BBNET set as a tag in the bb-hosts file for the failover server? The instructions say not to but I can't see any other way of making all the clients to send their info to the BB servers.

Also, yesterday I stopped the services for the primary BB server and the failover server kicked in (the FO column turned Yellow). When I brought the primary BB server back online, the failover server has yet to respond since then. I've restarted it several times but it still has the time stamp from yesterday when it first kicked in as a failover? Any idea why that is?

Why don't you set the clients to send their infos to both bb servers ?

Objet : {bb} failover



I am configuring a new server to act as a failover for the primary BB server, which currently is the BBNET, BBPAGER, and BBDISPLAY. I've completed the following:

* added the failover script to $BBHOME/ext of the failover server
* added a line to the $BBHOME/etc/bb-bbexttab file pointing to the script
on the failover server
* defined both primary and failover servers as BBPAGER in
$BBHOME/etc/bb-hosts
* defined BBNET only once (for the primary server) on all machines' bb-hosts
file
* added bbwarn: FAILOVER to bbwarnsetup.cfg of the bbwarnsetup.cfg file
* restarted bbrother on all machines



However, except for the failover server, the above only resulted in one column of green squares (under CONN). It's not showing cpu, disk, memory, msgs, etc etc. Am I doing something wrong? I've tried to stick to the directions as accurately as I can.
