nse8_812 Exam - Question 9


An HA topology is using the following configuration:

Based on this configuration, how long will it take for a failover to be detected by the secondary cluster member?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: AC

In the given configuration, the heartbeat interval (hb-interval) is set to 3. This is equivalent to 300 milliseconds (ms) because the default heartbeat interval is generally taken as 100 ms multiplied by the set interval value. The hb-lost-threshold is 2, which means the failover will be detected after 2 missed heartbeats. Therefore, the total time to detect a failover will be 2 times the hb-interval, which is 2 x 300 ms = 600 ms. Hence, the correct answer is 600 ms.

A: Default interval = 100ms. It can miss 2. So 2x300ms = 600ms

B is correct in the exhibit HA heartbeat interval is 100ms and before a failover is detected is 2 2x100= 200ms

hb-interval = 3 (3x100ms) hb-lost-threshold = 2 2 x 300ms = 600 ms . A is correct
