Auto-revival of service group dependency trees

Last published : Oct 01, 2026
The Cluster Server (VCS) component of InfoScale now provides an auto-revival feature for service group dependency trees. This feature can be enabled at the cluster level and at the service group level, both. When this feature is enabled, and a faulted resource comes online, the dependent resources and service groups - whose states were directly affected by the fault, and not due to other conditions or events - are automatically brought online.
The auto-revival of a service group dependency tree works only when the following prerequisites are met:
  • The cluster protocol version is 11100 or higher.
  • The cluster version is 9.1 or higher.
  • The dependencies between the service groups are set to any of the following:
    • online local hard
    • online local firm
    • online remote firm
    • online global firm
    • online site firm
For details, refer to the InfoScale 9.1 Cluster Server Administrator's Guide.
