NAME

       hb_standby - issues a failover request to the cluster manager

SYNOPSIS

       hb_standby [all|foreign|local|failback]

DESCRIPTION

           Warning
           This command is deprecated. It is only suitable for legacy
           Heartbeat clusters without Pacemaker enabled. In Pacemaker-enabled
           clusters, the crm(8) shell supports switching individual nodes into
           standby mode, and replaces hb_standby.

       /usr/share/heartbeat/hb_standby issues a request to the cluster to move
       resources from the node where it is invoked, to the other node (if it
       is currently available). The meaning of the options is relative. This
       manual assumes the following configuration to be present in
       /etc/ha.d/haresources:

           alice drbddisk::r0 Filesystem::/dev/drbd0::/local/groups::ext3 10.0.0.1 smb
           bob drbddisk::r1 Filesystem::/dev/drbd1::/local/ldap::ext3 10.0.0.2 ldap

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       local
           Migrates any resources that the local node is the preferred node
           for.

           When invoked on alice, Samba would be shut down, the IP address
           10.0.0.1 would be released, /local/groups would be unmounted,
           /dev/drbd0 would be placed into the secondary role and bob would
           take all these services over.

           When run on bob, OpenLDAP would shut down, 10.0.0.2 would be
           released, /local/ldap would be unmounted, /dev/drbd1 would be
           placed into the Secondary role and alice would take over all these
           services.

       foreign|failback
           Migrates any resources that the local node is not the preferred
           node for.

           When run on alice, OpenLDAP would shut down, 10.0.0.2 would be
           released, /local/ldap would be unmounted, /dev/drbd1 would be
           placed into the Secondary role and bob would take over all these
           services.

           When invoked on bob, Samba would be shut down, the IP address
           10.0.0.1 would be released, /local/groups would be unmounted,
           /dev/drbd0 would be placed into the secondary role and alice would
           take all these services over.

       all
           Migrates all resources to the other node.

       Invoking hb_standby without any options is identical to hb_standby all.

CAVEATS

       hb_standby is only usable in R1-style configurations (i.e., those
       configured using the haresources file).
