How Failover Works
The failover mechanism ensures that no report fails to deliver due to server unavailability.
Achieve this by balancing each process of the Scheduler using two or more nodes in a cluster thereby ensuring that a failure of any node must be backed up by the second node without any loss of data. For example, by enabling the Job Processor in two nodes, if one node fails, then the second node can process the pending jobs.
If a node goes down, the other nodes continue to service the queue. However, if a report job is in one of the following stages of processing: data retrieval, data formatting, or report delivery, the job is marked as failed, and must be manually resubmitted.
