Switching Back the Control Service Roles

When the original active Control Service is up again, and the backward scenario is running, you can switch back the roles of the standby and active Control Service and reverse them back to their original states.

To initiate a switchback

1. To reverse back the roles of the Control Services, while the backward scenario is running, click the Perform Switchover button or select the Perform Switchover option from the Tools menu.

   A confirmation message opens.

2. Click Yes on the Perform Switchover confirmation dialog. This procedure initiates a switchback from the original Replica server to the Master server. Again, you are not able to see the process of the switchback on the Overview Page and the Manager, since they are disconnected from the active Control Service. But once the Overview Page and Manager are reconnected, you can see that the Control Services have switched their roles and returned to their original states.

   Now, the Control Service HA scenario is running in its original direction.
