Recovering from an unplanned outage

If your primary computer becomes unavailable because of network problems, hardware failure, or software failure, you must shut down the system, fix all the problems on the primary computer so that it is available to the network, and then restart the system. If an application/secondary server is defined to the primary server when the primary server suffers an unplanned outage, that server attempts to reestablish the connection every 30 seconds, until it is able to connect or until it stops.
