Please verify that all other options for the "standby" are setup exactly as for the master, especially various processing options such as special ASCII symbol escape characters, and so on Please also note that the WebGetFile is coded incorrectly in your script It should be changed to WebGetFile( "http://intranet/stockchart.cfm", "D:\temp\stockticker.txt" ) If you have "\" setup as an escape character (which is the default) then the script should be changed to WebGetFile( "http://intranet/stockchart.cfm", "D:\\temp\\stockticker.txt" ) Most likely this will fix the problem. : I have setup a secondary server in standby mode in order to provide : redundancy for the scheduler software which is now responsible for some : mission critical scheduled tasks. : I have run into the following: The schedulers synchronize every 30 seconds, : with 2 failed synchronizations resulting in a failover. : I point my standy server back to the master, and see the tasks greyed out, : and the synchronization occuring every thirty seconds. : When I stop the service on the master server, I see the two failed : synchronizations, and the standy server take over as master. : After the first task is run: WebGetFile( http://intranet/stockchart.cfm , : D:\temp\stockticker.txt) : the scheduler program crashes, and no other tasks run. : I have spent quite a bit of time reviewing the documentation regarding : failover, and some of the options described no longer exist. From what : appears to be a very straigt-forward interface, I am running into a : significant issue. : Please advise : Thank you : Michael S.
