Switch to Standby Node to Confirm Switchover is Working

It is recommended to test each cluster resource as it is created. This helps to identify misconfigurations or other issues early in the cluster creation process.

In the LifeKeeper User Interface, right-click a resource on the standby node and select “In Service…” from the context menu. This forces a switchover to the standby node.

Once the switchover is confirmed, LifeKeeper will switch the resource (including any dependent resources) to the standby node.

Once the switchover has completed successfully, node-b will be listed as the active node.

*Switch back to node-a once you confirm that the switchover works.
