19.3.2 Additional Failover Conditions
It is possible to define additional failover conditions to have a better control of which
SMP Gateway is active. The failover conditions are defined in the SysServerConfig.txt file and
that file can be uploaded to the SMP Gateway as any other file. In this file, 16 additional error
conditions can be defined which will force a failover. An example file was copied on your
computer’s hard drive during the SMP Tools’ installation, at the following location:
\Program Files\Cybectec\SMP Tools\Documentation\Application notes.

one is stated as “on standby”, waiting for a failover.
