This setting works with the virtual host policy (either
AUTOFAILBACK or
NOFAILBACK) to determine what happens when a probe of a monitored
service fails.
The default policies (
AUTOFAILBACK for the virtual host and
AUTORECOVERY for the monitor) cause ClusterPulse to fail over the
associated virtual host to a backup network interface on another server.
When the service is recovered on the original node, the virtual host fails
back to that node.
You can use the Timeout and Failure Severity attribute to change this
behavior. There are three settings:
NOFAILOVER, AUTORECOVER, and
NOAUTORECOVER.
NOFAILOVER. When the monitored service fails, ClusterPulse does not
fail over to a backup network interface. This option is useful when the
