Setting a Secondary to Primary

This procedure describes how to set a secondary host to act as the primary host when the primary installation is corrupted.

To set a secondary to primary:

1. After a successful failover has occurred, from the High Availability tab, select the secondary and click Set as Primary.

   The secondary is now the new primary host.

2. Install a secondary on the original primary computer or on another computer, as described in High availability installation.

   The primary detects the new secondary, and you now have a new high availability configuration. You can work with this configuration, but if you want to revert to your original configuration (the secondary is installed on the original primary computer), continue to the next step.

3. Perform a failover from the new primary to the new secondary, as described in Failing over a Control-M/EM or Control-M/Server to secondary.

   The secondary is now the active host.

4. From the High Availability tab, select the secondary and click Set as Primary.

   You have now reverted to your original high availability configuration.
