    Hello Yash, VCS will show a single IP address to the external world, this is achieved by configuring a virtual IP address on the appropriate NIC and that IP will be part of a VCS resource along with the application resource in a service group, you have to configure the dependencies accordingly i.e. Application requires IP. For automatic failover you should make sure the application resource is set to critical and the node is part of the system list in the application service group. Having said that the application binaries should be present on the node 2. You can get more help from bundle agents reference guide and VCS administration guides. https://sort.veritas.com/welcome/documentation Thanks.
