Hi Horst, Thanks so much for your information. > as far as I found out with our installation (StoneBeat Fullcluster 3.0 and > NG FP2 on Solaris 8) the failover only occurs if the heartbeat wents down or > by sbfc command.
Yes, it is the same situation with me. But in the manual of "StoneBeat FullCluster Administator's Guide", They said "If a StoneBeat FullCluster firewall node fails, it is switched offline and the traffic going through it is moved to other firewall nodes." and "StoneBeat FullCluster can preserve all existing connection over a failover." Is that true?!
