Thanks Mike. Yes we are using wan replication. We want the switch to be an automatic step. As soon as prod cluster fails we need to switch to cob without any restart of the client application.
One way we are thinking of is probably catching those locator not available sort of exception and then make a switch. Any thoughts?
