Agent functions

The RVGPrimary agent has the following agent functions:

Online

Determines the current role of the RVG. If the role is Secondary it attempts a migration. It waits for any outstanding writes from the original Primary. If the original Primary is down, it attempts a takeover. You can configure the RVGPrimary agent so that, before a takeover, the agent synchronizes the Secondary site with any bunker associated with the Primary site, when the Primary site is not available. If the RVG is a Primary, it performs no actions and goes online.

Offline

Performs no actions.

Monitor

Performs no actions. The RVG agents monitors the actual RVG.

Clean

Performs no actions.

fbsync

This is an action entry point.

It resynchronizes the original Primary with the new Primary that has taken over with fast-failback, after the original Primary had become unavailable. This needs to be executed when the original Primary becomes available and starts acting as a Secondary.

ElectPrimary

This is an action entry point.

It can be executed to retain the specified RVG as the Primary in a Primary-Primary configuration.
