failover timeout

[Abu Abdulla alhanbali]

this is not what i mean. if the primary servers is down, how long will
it take the secondary server to start assigning the IPs that are
reserved for the primary server. you can do this manually using the
omshell but i don't know if this will be done automatically or not.
