5 -In the previous microlearning, we discussed what needs to be done in the Create phase to enable failover for systems that are configured to have them in the Design phase. Next to that, we also discussed that setting up this failover functionality in your model requires you to execute some steps in your Design, Create, and lastly Deploy phase. Picking up from what we have toggled in the Create phase, in this microlearning, we will focus on the steps and configurations that you have to make in the Deploy phase to activate the active/passive failover functionality.
5 +In the previous microlearning, we discussed what situation that failover mode will be beneficial as well as the settings that need to be configured in the Design phase. Next to that, we also discussed that setting up this failover functionality in your model requires you to first execute some steps in your Design, Create, and lastly Deploy phase. Picking up from what we have discussed previously in the Design phase, in this microlearning, we will focus on configuring your setup in the Create phase if you want to activate the active/passive failover configuration.

15 -This microlearning describes what configuration that you will have to do in the Deploy phase, based on what you have configured in the Design and Create phase, to enable failover for systems connecting with your model. The grouping and failover functionality is relevant when faced with maintenance and outages of systems connected to your model. The failover functionality assists in that case and allows you to have a fallback option on an active connection.

21 -After finishing up your configuration in the Create phase, you can then move to your Deploy>Architecture. Here, you will see the new router containers, which we have seen in the Design>Architecture, to be added to your external machines. When you press "Start Editing" in this page, and then press "Apply to environment", you will be faced with a pop-up page that informs you that these router containers will be created for this specific environment as shown in the screenshot below.

25 -Once you have applied the changes, when you go to the "Details" of each of those machines via right-clicking them, then you can find and set for each failover runtime the preferred machine to be the leader. As an example shown in the screenshot below, there are two runtimes that are enabled for failover and you can select whether that runtime running in that "External 01" machine is the preferred leader. Another option is to set the runtime that you select as the backup, or reset it back to "None" if you want.

41 +* Grouping is beneficial when external systems go through maintenance or downtime.
42 +* Failover can have the additional benefit of having a fallback scenario while still adhering to the requirement that there can only be one active connection at a time.
43 +* The role naming in both grouping and failover is crucial. The whole name needs to be matched fully to make it work.
44 +* For the infra configuration of the failover setup, we have a store item that you can use.
