Configure Service Assurance Manager, Adapter Platform, and BIM in the failover.conf file.

  1. In the installation area where the Failover Manager is running, go to the BASEDIR/smarts/bin directory and type the following command to open the failover.conf file:

                   ./sm_edit /conf/failover/failover.conf
                
  2. Under the Server section, add SAM, Adapter Platform, and BIM details with Server Type as SAM, OI, and BIM, respectively. For example:

    SAM:

    Server
        {
       DetachInterval = 300;
        Name = "INCHARGE-SA";
       ServerType     = "SAM";
            LocationA
            {
                HostName   = "itops-tco-217.lss.emc.com";
                PortNumber = 1751;
                Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts";
        }
            LocationB
            {
                HostName   = "itops-tco-223.lss.emc.com";
                PortNumber = 1751;
                Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts";
       }
        }
    Server
        {
       DetachInterval = 300;
        Name = "INCHARGE-SA-PRES";
       ServerType     = "SAM";
    UIServices = "smarts-tomcat,smarts-rabbitmq,smarts-elasticsearch";
            LocationA
            {
                HostName   = "itops-tco-217.lss.emc.com";
                PortNumber = 1751;
                Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts";
        }
            LocationB
            {
                HostName   = "itops-tco-223.lss.emc.com";
                PortNumber = 1751;
                Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts";
       }
        }
    Server
        {
            DetachInterval = 300;
            Name           = "INCHARGE-OI";
            ServerType     = "OI";
            LocationA
            {
                HostName   = "smartslin02.svtdomain.us.dg.com";
                PortNumber = 11308;
                Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts";
        }
            LocationB
            {
                HostName   = "smartslin04.svtdomain.us.dg.com";
                PortNumber = 11308;
                Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts";
       }
         }
    Server
        {
      DetachInterval = 300;
      Name           = "INCHARGE-MBIM";
      ServerType     = "BIM";
              LocationA
            {
                HostName   = "itops-tco-217.lss.emc.com";
                PortNumber = 1752;
                Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts";
       }
            LocationB
            {
                HostName   = "itops-tco-223.lss.emc.com";
                PortNumber = 1752;
                Basedir    = "/opt/InCharge/SAM/smarts";
       }
        }
    
  3. Save the failover.conf file and exit.

    Note:

    If you configure SAM for failover while the Failover Manager is already running, use the ic-failover-server script reload option to reload the failover.conf file and use the Reconfigure button in the Domain Manager Administration Console to reconfigure the Failover Manager.
