Failover scenarios
Failover Scenario | Behavior | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | When one of the VMs/nodes are down | The VIP will route the traffic to the secondary VM. All read/write operations will continue to work. |
| 2 | When both of the VMs are down | All read/write operations will fail and a manual intervention will be required. |
Out of Scope
Component-Level Failover: Failover of individual components is not supported.
Network-level failover support: The internal network/link between the VMs (or the Docker network) is assumed to be working all the time.
Assumptions
Both VMs must be on the same subnet. Otherwise, the failover won't work.
Setting up the DB cluster for MS SQL Server lies under the Customer responsibility.
Manual intervention will be required when both VMs are down.
