IP ICMP or Heartbeat Monitoring
Detect Failure in Seconds or Minutes
Failover Server Name and IP address
Failover DNS Records
Start up application services
Users can reconnect within minutes of failure
Failover can occur across a LAN, WAN and even NAT
Failover more than one Server Identity to the Same Target Server
Failover Scripting for Custom Configurations
Source Target

How Failback Works www.doubletake.com Failover Monitoring Source Target
Recover or Replace Source Server
Restore Data to the Source Server
Failback Source Identity
Bring Source Applications Online
Users Reconnect Within Minutes
Start Replication and resume Failover Monitoring for Continued Protection
Restoration of Changes Only Re-establish Replication job
