Re: Email engine is a server group
In a server group the email engine runs on all of the servers but is put in a suspended state on all but the highest ranked. Should the highest ranked AR server fail then the next highest ranked email engine is signalled (by its AR server) to resume processing. When the higher ranked server comes back online it resumes processing and the lower ranked one is suspended. The messages you see during startup (java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused Email Engine currently is not up) happen because the server tries to signal the email engine before it has been started by armonitor - you can ignore them or put the email engine before the server in armonitor.cfg. The suspend/resume signal is sent by the server running a Java process - if you're on Unix you can enable arfork logging and see this - the commands are $ java -jar EmailAdminAgent.jar suspend/resume If you're trying to diagnose a problem with failover operations enable server group logging and you should see the secondary server detecting the primary fail and resuming the email engine.

Re: Email engine is a server group
Mark, As I understand it, the Email Engine should connect to its own associated app server, so that when app 1 goes offline, app2 should signal its email engine to take over operations, and if email engine 1 should still be connected...it would stop operationsbut that's just a theoretical understanding..
