(Workflow) Fail over a PN to an RN When you start an RN, whether agent‑based or agent‑less, you are indirectly shutting down the PN and PN proxy (VM) respectively and disabling backups for that PN. To fail over a PN to an RN: 1. Log on to the HA Appliance’s onQ Portal. 2. Start the recovery node or, if the PN has a Build‑on‑Demand RN creation policy, create the on‑demand RN. If the RN is agent‑less, the Backup Mode switches from Agentless to Recovery Node. 3. If applicable, restore the Oracle database: • Back up and restore Oracle 11g database on Linux • Back up and restore Oracle 10g+ database on Windows 4. Fix the PN’s server.
