Viewing VCS Failover Duration report

Last published : Jun 19, 2026
In Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager, the VCS Failover Duration report provides the details on the failover duration for the service groups in the selected scope. You can add all types of service groups (failover, parallel, and hybrid) for the failover duration reporting. The report provides the minimum, maximum, and the average failover duration for the service groups, thereby providing an overview of high availability (HA) status of the applications in the data center. All users (administrator, operator, and guest) can run this report. The reporting and alerting is supported only for Cluster Server service groups. Other third-party clustering products are not supported. Also ensure that VCS nodes (managed hosts) are running Veritas Operations Manger 6.1 or later.
When a service group is failed over across a global site or between different clusters, the failover report displays the host name and cluster name of the source and target systems in the following format \< Host-Name\>::\<Cluster-Name\>.
For example, when the host (host1) in the cluster (clus2) is failed over to the host (host5) in another cluster (clus7), the report indicates the source as host1::clus2 and target as host5::clus7.
You can perform the following tasks in this view:
  • Subscribe for the report.
  • Save the report as a CSV file.
  • Email the report.
You can view this information related to the clusters and service groups for which your user group has at least Guest role explicitly assigned or inherited from a parent Organization. You can also view information if your user group has at least Guest role assigned on the Availability perspective.
