Solved 3CXPhoneSystemMC01 not starting on failover sever, which services should be autostart?

[KeithTX]

We have a failover server setup between two linux server, the failover has worked fine in the past. This morning I SSH'd into the failover server found that the 3CXPhoneSystemMC01 service was not started. When I checked I found that all of the 3CX services were disabled for startup. I know that 3CXPhoneSystemMC01 should autostart. My question is, on the failover server which other services should autostart?

Thanks,
Keith

Hi Keith,

All of the services should start once a failover event is detected by the passive server.

So to clarify, 3CXPhoneSystemMC01 is the only service that should be running on the passive server. Is that correct?

Here is a typical example of a Passive machine running on Windows:


And a Passive running on Linux:
