Using High Availability
Note: High Availability is only available with a PowerBroker Password Safe license.
Active–Passive High Availability
High availability is designed to be a highly available system in an Active-Passive configuration. At any time, one of
your two servers has the role of the Active node, while the other is the Passive node.
When the Passive server detects the Active server has failed, then the Passive is promoted to Active and the Active
is demoted.
After the Active server fails and all issues are resolved, the server takes on the Passive role.
Setting up High Availability
Setting up High Availability is optional.
