Method of detecting Failover(BIA)

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I am looking for the method by which the thing that BIA did Failover can be clearly confirmed.

Example:

※(A) = Master index queue server / (B) = Backup index queue server

Blade1(A)/Blade2(A)/Blade3(B)

u2193

(Blade2 down)

u2193

Failover was normally executed, and it changed into Blade3(B).

u2193

Now,　I am judging whether Failover was executed from the use rate of CPU.

But Only the sense can be judged in this method.

Is there a method that can be judged more clearly excluding this?

Could you please teach to me.

Hi Ko,

instead of "guessing" I suggest to setup the TREX Alertserver to get notified if something goes wrong on BIA/TREX.

Dear Marc,

Thnaks for your advice!! very helpful.

There were a lot of parts insufficient in my sentences.

I have already used "TREX admin tool(Stand-alone)" and "TREX admin tool in the SAP".

And It is judged whether "Backup blade" is used from TREX admin tool ("Itme of Service => tab of Load"(CPU utilization of Backup blade)).

Example：

Normally => There is ilttle CPU utilization of Backup blade.

When problem occurs(execute failover) => The amount of CPU utilization is larger than that of time usually.

But it is thought that this is not a clear method that can be recognized that Failover of BIA blade was executed.

Therefore I want to know the method by which the thing that changes into Failover(BIA) now and operates can be clearly confirmed. When it is my understanding shortage, sorry.

Best regards,

Ko
