In this scenario, when both an Active SAM and its corresponding BIM fails, then both Standby SAM and BIM becomes active. This scenario is illustrated below:
-
All components are up and running. Active BIM talks to Active SAM and vice versa. Similarly, Standby BIM talks to Standby SAM and vice versa.
-
Both Active SAM and Active BIM are down.
-
Standby SAM and Standby BIM become Active.
