Hi, Thank you very much for your reply.
I would like to know in which cases HA will happen? 1. network failure? ( i.e , if we accidentally remove the network cable or if network card stopped working due to some reasons. ) 2. Server is suddenly shut-down due to power failure (i.e - NOT a proper shut-down ) or due to server Hardware failure such as motherboard or processor. 3. accidental reboot ? WILL HA will happen when above mentioned things happen? YES or NO? Hope to hear from you?
