To set up the Enterprise Management Servers as Primary/Backup:
• The Service type parameter in the elink.cfg file should be set to PRIMARY or BACKUP.
• The -msgqueuing parameter should not be used in the ovnm_start.sh script.
NOTE:
Catch-up request can only be sent from either the Primary or the Backup Server and NOT both.
