Monitor Move
Command MONITOR MOVE
Description Designates the IP address that will be failed over to the specified target NIC.
Syntax
MONITOR MOVE <IP_address> TO NIC <target_NIC> INTERVAL <interval> TIMEOUT <timeout> |
<NOTEST> [monitor]
Options ! IP_address—The IP address which should be moved during failover
! target_NIC—The integer value of the target NIC obtained from the niclist command
! interval—The frequency, in seconds, of the monitor requests sent to the source machine to see if
it is online and active
! timeout—The number of seconds before failover will occur. This number is reset to its maximum
each time the source sends a response to the monitor request.
! NOTEST—Allows you to failover an IP address without sending monitor requests or expecting
responses from the source. This option should only be used if you are monitoring multiple IP
addresses but do not want to send monitor requests to each address.
! monitor—Name of the source machine designated as the monitor
Examples
! monitor move 205.31.2.57 to nic 1 interval 5 timeout 25
! monitor move 205.31.2.68 to nic 2 notest
Notes If you do not specify a monitor, the current source designated as the monitor will be used. If you
have not identified a monitor, you will receive an error message stating that a monitor has not been
selected.
