Creating a floating IP address

You can optionally create floating IP addresses for each of your HA groups in a DR/HA configuration.

A floating IP address enables a client to use the same IP address for a DR/HA queue manager regardless of which node in an HA group it is running on. If your two HA groups have private/isolated networks for application connectivity, then the same floating IP address can be defined for both groups. You must still define that floating IP address twice, however, once on each of your HA groups.

You create and delete floating IP addresses using the same method as for an HA queue manager, see Specifying a floating IP address for a queue manager.
