Abstract

See full text

Maintaining operability of a network-connected data processing apparatus is provided. In response to a requirement for failover from a first resource to a second resource, one or more processors tests an availability of the second resource, wherein the first and second resources are redundant resources of a network-connected data processing apparatus that is communicatively coupled to at least one host computer. In response to a positive determination of the availability of the second resource, one or more processors initiates the failover; and in response to a negative determination of the availability of the second resource, one or more processors provides an indication of unavailability.
