(1,189 posts)Server 1.2.3.4 runs script abcdvote. Is there anywhere in the log where there was an underlying switch to Server 5.6.7.8 to run same script name that had vote flipping in the programming? Then it's switched back to Server 1.2.3.4 with flipped results. Noone even watching the screen would know that the server/script switch had happened. I support distributed batch scheduling support....we use this technique for prod/disaster recovery testing/switching. It's very simple to do...and all 'behind the scenes'. Define the 2 servers to 1 Virtual name..and run a simple switch script. changes execution from 1st server to 2nd server. Run the switch script again and the server flips back from 2nd to 1st. Bad/flipping pgm has run on 2nd server. Transparent to the state employees monitoring.
