If you wish to cause a manual failover on the cluster containing Server A and Server B, with
Server B being the surviving server, initiate the failure from the console of Server A. Server
B would then be the surviving server and Server A would enter recovery.
•
If the Disk Link fails, then there is a more serious problem somewhere along the shared drive
channel. If the problem is in the channel between one server in the cluster and the shared
drive subsystem, then that server will be disarmed and its shared drives will have already
become inaccessible. The volumes will not be mounted on the other server unless all other
links fail or a manual failover is invoked. If the problem is in the shared subsystem, then
some or all of the shared drives will become inaccessible and one or both servers will be
disarmed. A Disk Link failure alone will not cause a server failover.
