2 Node Active/Passive - Failover when switch rebooted.

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hi

Despite being directly connected with a crossover cable and each server
being connected in to the switch, they seem to think that they need to
failover when the switch goes off line. Why?

Surely they should only be checking connectivity if the heartbeat fails over
the direct connection. Then, they attempt to use the LAN connection.

Have I missed something here?

Thanks

David
