Introduction

In a Three-Server Redundant (Triad) setup, license availability is maintained through a primary (master) server and two secondary servers. This article describes the behavior of queued licenses during a master server failover event and clarifies a current product limitation.

Details

When a client has a queued license request against the master server in a Three-Server Redundant (Triad) configuration, the queued license information remains associated with the master server.

If the master server becomes unavailable, the queued license requests are not transferred to either of the secondary servers. As a result, clients that were waiting in the queue on the master server will not retain their queue position after failover.

This behavior is expected and is a known limitation of the current implementation. Queue information is not synchronized between the redundant servers, and therefore queued license requests cannot be migrated from the master server to a secondary server when a failover occurs.
