MONITOR MOVE
|
| Description
|
Designates the IP address that will be failed over to the specified target NIC
|
| Syntax
|
MONitor MOVE <IP_address> TO NIC <target_NIC>
USE NONE
| NETWORK INTERVAL <interval> TIMEOUT <timeout>
| SERVICE INTERVAL <interval> TIMEOUT <timeout> | <NOTEST> [monitor]
|
| Options
|
- IP_address—The IP address which should be moved during failover
- target_NIC—The integer value of the target NIC obtained from the niclist command
- NONE—Does not actively monitor the source machine. You will be responsible for identifying when a failure has occurred and initiating failover manually.
- NETWORK—Monitors the source by looking for a Double-Take Availability network response
- SERVICE—Monitors the source by looking for Double-Take service response
- INTERVAL interval—The frequency, in seconds, of the monitor requests sent to the source machine to see if it is online and active
- TIMEOUT timeout—The number of seconds before failover will occur. This number is reset to its maximum each time the source sends a response to the monitor request.
- NOTEST—Allows you to failover an IP address without sending monitor requests or expecting responses from the source. This option should only be used if you are monitoring multiple IP addresses but do not want to send monitor requests to each address.
- monitor—Name of the source machine designated as the monitor

| Examples
|
- monitor move 205.31.2.57 to nic 1 use network interval 5 timeout 25
- monitor move 205.31.2.68 to nic 2 use none notest
- mon move 205.31.2.68 to nic 2 use none notest

| Notes
|
-
If you do not specify a monitor, the current source designated as the monitor will be used. If you have not identified a monitor, you will receive an error message stating that a monitor has not been selected.
- If you choose to use the service option, your source and target must be using the same Double-Take Availability port settings. If you choose to use the network option, the port settings can be different.
-
Monitor names that contain non-alphanumeric characters must be enclosed in quotation marks.
