High Availability and VMP |
When a failover occurs, the secondary VMP Server takes over the role of the primary server.
The behavior of the two servers is shown below.
VMP Server 1 is now the secondary (passive) server.
VMP Server 1 will attempt to send an E-Mail to the Administrator to indicate that a failover has occurred.
VMP Server 2 is the primary (active) server and is accepting HTTPS traffic from the load balancer.
VMP Server 2 will send an email to the administrator indicating its primary server status.
VMP Server 2 is updating the SQL server with a timestamp every 2 seconds.
The Load Balancer is working in conjunction with the VMP Server pair, and is now redirecting all HTTPS traffic to VMP Server 2.
