Thanks Gaurav and Wally for their valuable inputs. As wally suggested let me try with Lanman resource for windows.
For Gaurav`s question, let me explaing about my prodcut little more in brief. While installing my prodcut , it will take the hostname of the server from which installation is triggered. For example let us assume my server1 is assigned with hostname ServerA and server2 is with ServerB.
So i am installing my prodcut using Server1 in storage array , so my product binaries will be incorporated with ServerA as hostname. So if a failover happens, my product binaries will not work from Server2 because Server2 hostname is ServerB which is not present in my prodcu binary files. THis is my problem.
So as a solution , what i am trying to do is I am going to install my product using a hostname which will be common to both the server. Hence If i do a setup using virtual hostname and installing my product using the virtual hostname (it will be applicable for both the servers), even after failover that name will be allocated to Server2 also, hence my binaries will be working from server2 also.
Hope you understood my problem now..
With Regards,
Sri
