Monitor pair status information

The pair status information displayed in the Server Details Page provides you with identifying information and the connection statuses of both servers in the pair. If both servers are running and can be accessed over the network they are hosted on, the pair status information displays as follows in the Server Details Page:

There are a number of conditions that will trigger a change in the Pair Status. The conditions and corresponding status changes are listed below. In these examples, the condition occurs on the backup server.

• The backup server node shuts down

  • Backup server status changes to: Disconnected

  • Pair status changes to: Backup not available

• The backup server loses network connection or is stopped

  • Backup server status changes to: Stopped

  • Pair status changes to: Backup not available

• The backup server is uninstalled

  • Backup server status changes to: Backup not available

  • Pair status changes to: Backup not available

• The pair is not synced

  • Both server statuses remain as Running

  • Pair status changes to: Pair not synced

    See Requirements for primary and backup servers for details on this scenario.

For example, if the backup server was stopped, the statuses would appear as follows:

The pair status information is also reflected on the server tile in the Server Summary Page. If both servers in the pair are connected and running, the tile displays Paired and Available. If the pair is not available, the server tile will reflect whichever server is unavailable.

The following images show how the pair status is displayed in the server tile.
