Understand Your Connectivity Agent Responsibilities During a Failover
The location of your connectivity agent installation during a disaster determines if manual intervention is required. In most cases, the connectivity agent fails over and automatically redirects traffic to the secondary instance with no need for manual intervention. Review the following table to determine your responsibilities.
| Scenario | Your Responsibilities |
|---|---|
| If the connectivity agent is installed in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute, and the compute is impacted because of a disaster in that region or for another reason. | You must have a plan in place that allows for a quick recovery of the connectivity agent. See Recover the Connectivity Agent in Case of Host Failure in Using Integrations in Oracle Integration 3. |
| For all other scenarios not impacted by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute failure (for example, the connectivity agent is installed in your on-premises environment). | A second connectivity agent installation is not required. After failover, the existing connectivity agent automatically redirects traffic to the secondary site and continues to work without any manual intervention required. |
