Failing over a Control-M/EM or Control-M/Server to secondary

This procedure describes how to manually fail over a Control-M/EM or Control-M/Server to a secondary host.

In manual mode, the secondary CA starts up the CMS.

NOTE: Control-M/EM and/or Control-M/Server must be using a MSSQL or Oracle database.

To fail over to secondary:

  1. From the High Availability tab, select the primary Control-M/EM or Control-M/Server component and click Failover to Secondary.

    A progress window appears listing each step in the failover process.

  2. When the failover is complete, click Close.

    Control-M/EM or Control-M/Server is now running on the secondary host.

  3. If you want to revert to your original configuration, fix the problem on the primary and then fall back to primary, as described in Falling back Control-M/EM or Control-M/Server to primary.
