Purpose
The network address of the High Availability (HA) Failover server to be used in the event of a connection loss. The driver detects the dropped connection and automatically reconnects to the specified HA Failover server. This option is valid only for Sybase 12 and higher servers that have the High Availability Failover feature enabled.
Valid Values
IP_ address , port_number | pipe_address , port_number | server_name, port_number
where:
IP_ address
is the IP address that uniquely identifies the HA Failover server.
port_number
is the port number assigned to the listener process on the HA Failover server.
server_name
is a name that uniquely identifies the HA Failover server. You can use this format if your environment supports named servers.
pipe_address
