Selecting a recovery procedure

You must select the correct recovery procedure for the type of node that has failed. For Storage Nodes, the procedures vary based on the type and duration of the failure. For Admin Nodes, the procedures vary based on whether you need to recover the primary Admin Node or a non-primary Admin Node.

About this task

If a server that is hosting more than one grid node fails, you can recover the nodes in any order. However, if the failed server is hosting the primary Admin Node, you should recover that node first. Recovering the primary Admin Node first prevents other node recoveries from halting as they wait to contact the primary Admin Node.
