Cell failover configuration parameters

Determines whether the primary server automatically fails over to the secondary server.
For automatic failover to occur, this parameter must be set to YES on both servers.

Boolean

Determines whether the secondary server automatically switches back to the primary server when the primary server restarts after failover.
For automatic switchback to occur, this parameter must be set to YES on both the primary and secondary servers.

Boolean

CellDuplicateFailOverStartTimeOut

Specifies the length of time (in seconds) that the secondary server waits to become active after it is started.
When the secondary server starts, it expects the primary to connect to it. If the primary server does not connect to the secondary within the time specified by the CellDuplicateFailOverStartTimeOut parameter, the secondary server becomes active.
The time specified for CellDuplicateFailOverStartTimeOut should be longer than the time specified for CellDuplicateFailOverTimeOut to allow operators to start up primary and secondary servers at almost the same time, in any order.

Number

Specifies the length of time (in seconds) that the secondary server waits to become active after the secondary server loses connection to the primary server.

Number

Can be used to disable the heartbeat of a high availability cell, to prevent the secondary cell server from becoming active when the primary cell server is active due to VMware clock discrepancies

Boolean

Specifies the operation mode of the server.
1 = primary server
2 = secondary server
0 = the server is operating as a non-high availability cell.
This is the only parameter that needs a different value between primary and secondary.

Number

Specifies the connectivity status between the primary and secondary servers through heartbeat.
