What is Server Fast restart in Lotus Domino 8?
When a Domino outage occurs, Fast Restart allows a new Domino instance to start while NSD diagnostics are being run on the initial Domino server instance. When diagnostics are completed the initial Domino server instance is automatically terminated. In the current release, Server Fast Restart is only available on AIX and Solaris versions of the Domino server.
How does Server Fast Restart work?
All files and connections in use by the initial Domino instance are closed but processes and shared memory remain active until NSD diagnostics are completed. The new instance will be started by a Server Fast Restart process called faultmon.
When the initial Domino instance fails, it will send a message to a monitoring program called faultmon. faultmon receives the message over a named pipe, and restarts Domino. faultmon has two options for restarting the new Domino instance; the default option is to start the new Domino instance in the background, while the second option allows the user to specify a script to start the new Domino instance.
