Testing the Virtual IP control scripts (Windows)

Start

1. Run the SC_VIP_DOWN.BAT script on the backup VM Server.
2. Run the SC_VIP_UP.BAT script on the primary VM Server.
3. Verify that the Virtual IP interface is running on the primary host by using the ipconfig command. For example:

 
 @C:\GCTI\SWITCHOVER\1NIC>ipconfig
 @Windows IP Configuration
 @Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
 @Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
 @IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.11.103
 @Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
 @IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.11.101
 @Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
 @Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.11.104
 

2. Verify that the Virtual IP interface is not running on the backup VM Server. For example:

 
 @C:\GCTI\SWITCHOVER\1NIC>ipconfig
 @Windows IP Configuration
 @Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
 @    Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
 @    IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.11.102
 @    Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
 @    Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.11.104
 

3. Run the SC_VIP_DOWN.BAT script on the primary VM Server.
4. Run the SC_VIP_UP.BAT script on the backup VM Server.
5. Verify that the Virtual IP interface is running on the backup VM Server by using the ipconfig command. Output should appear similar to the following:

 
 @Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection:
 @Connection-specific DNS Suffix . :
 @IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.11.103
 @Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
 @IP Address. . . . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.11.102
 @Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
 @Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 10.10.11.104
