actions necessary to make the file shares available on the appropriate server.
Editing scripts is an advanced feature. Do not edit scripts unless you fully understand
what each command is doing.
Scripts are automatically generated by Application Manager during configuration. The
scripts are copied to the Storage Mirroring Recover installation directory on the specified
server using the administrative share for that server’s drive.
Script File name Description
Failover
post_
failover_
FilePrint.txt
A post-failover script is executed after the core failover
processes have completed on the target server. The primary
functions of the post-failover script are to start the services on
the target and to modify DNS and Active Directory entries as
necessary.
Failback
pre_
failback_
FilePrint.txt
A pre-failback script is executed before failback processing
occurs on the target server. The primary functions of this script
are to stop services on the target and to move DNS and Active
Directory entries as necessary.
Restore
post_
restore_
FilePrint.txt
A post-restore script is not executed automatically, though it is
provided on the source to perform actions that are generally
required after data has been restored from the target to source
after a failover/failback. The primary function of this script is to
restart services on the source server.
Post-
failback
post_
failback_
FilePrint.txt
A post-failback script is executed on the target before the post-
restore script runs. The primary function of this script is to re-
start the Server service and all dependent services on the
source in order to refresh client connections.
By default, Application Manager generates all the required scripts for you automatically
based on your system configuration. You can also edit the scripts to add, modify, or
delete specific commands. To edit a script:
1. Click on the button for the script you want to update. The script file will be
displayed using your machine’s default editor.
2. Enter your changes.
3. Save the script file.
Any change you make to the script in the editor will be copied to the appropriate server
when configuration changes are accepted, thus overwriting any changes that have been
made outside the Application Manager.
