Failover server down for a long time

Hi,

If a failover (backup) agent has been down for a few weeks, is there something one need to take into consideration before bringing it back up again? Will the backup agent receive all necessary data from the main agent when the backup agent comes back online again and sync connection is established again?

Running DataMiner 10.5 with a self-hosted Cassandra/OpenSearch cluster.

Second question: Does the backup agent communicate with the Cassandra cluster or is it just the main servers that does ?

Hi Roger,

What we know about starting the offline agent (i.e. in offline mode), is to give it time to synchronize (this could take a while).

If you start the offline agent and directly make it online, it will first synchronize and only then start up its UI (likely causing hours of delay).

Let's see if the experts might have something to add on the subject.
