By default, failover of the SAP DB resource is enabled. The fault monitor fails over the SAP DB resource in response to a persistent fault. A persistent fault occurs if the number of attempts to restart exceeds Retry_count within the time that Retry_interval specifies.
Disable the failover of the SAP DB resource if you require the fault monitor to restart the SAP DB even in response to a persistent fault. When failover is disabled, the fault monitor reports a persistent fault in a resource by setting the status of the resource to faulted.
