Automated Switchover System Technical Reference
Configuration options for File Monitor health checks
In rare cases, File Monitor can become unresponsive or shut down unexpectedly. If a switchover occurs before File Monitor is restarted, the latest files will not be replicated to the backup server. A health check has been added in 2015 R3 to make these types of File Monitor failures more visible.
Two system parameters are used with the File Monitor health check: Switchover
File Monitor Health Check Interval and Switchover File
Monitor Health Check Timeout. These parameters govern how often
the File Monitor health check occurs and when a failure message is written
to the event log. For more information, see Switchover
Server parameters
