Takeover and Recovery Timing

Reference Topics:

Client Tab

Backup Clients Tab


Client device takeover occurs following communication breakdown between the default client and the
backup client, under the following circumstances:

1. If network problems should occur.
2. If a default client computer crashes.
3. Immediate takeover following normal shutdown, ignoring any other settings. This occurs if Secure

Perfect services are stopped and Perform Backup on Normal Shutdown is enabled on the Backup
Clients tab of the Client form.

When a backup client detects that the default client is offline, an approximate takeover timing can be
predicted using the following formula:

Ping Interval

X

Retry Count of Default Computer

+

Heartbeat Interval

X

Heartbeat Retry Count of Default Computer

+

Network Delays

All these values are configured on the Client form.
The values in this formula can be adjusted to achieve a shorter or longer takeover scenario.
