Adding RHA-IP to New Scenarios

To add RHA-IP to a new scenario for Move IP redirection method

1. On the Scenario Creation Wizard, in the Master and Replica Hosts page, enter the following:
   • On the Master Hostname/IP box, enter the additional IP address (RHA-IP).
   • On the Replica Hostname/IP box, enter the IP address of the Replica host, and not its hostname.

2. Click Next, and continue defining the scenario as usual until the Switchover Properties page appears.
3. On the Switchover Properties page, open the Network Traffic Redirection group, select the Move IP property, and set its value to On.

   By default, the second IP address of the Master host appears here in the IP/Mask box.

   Note: If the Master host has only one IP address, the IP/Mask box would be empty.

4. If you have end users who connect to the Master host using its hostname, use the Redirect DNS or Switch Computer Name methods along with the Move IP. If you do not need to use the Master hostname, disable the Redirect DNS option by setting its value to Off.
5. After setting the redirection method, click Next, and continue defining the HA scenario as usual.
