Hi,
I have a three node exchange 2003 SP2 cluster on windows 2003 SP1, I have two virtual exchange server running on two separate nodes. Issue is, when ever there is network port issue on a particular node which is hosting exchange virtual server, it immediately tries to failover to other node. I know this is the right thing to do but I want this to fail over only after waiting for 900 seconds. Suppose network port comes back to normal within this time then there wont be any inconsistency. I have made all NIC port on the servers to 100 MBs /full duplex instead of auto neg.
Right now I have made IP resource threshold : 3 period: 900 secs. But still it immediately fails over .
Can any body help me on this.
Regards
Praveen R
