HELPLIB.HLB  —  SET  CPU  Qualifiers  /FAILOVER
       /FAILOVER=option (Alpha/Integrity servers only)
       /NOFAILOVER

    Establishes instance-specific failover relationships for each CPU
    in the instance's potential set.

    When the instance crashes, CPUs with a failover target other than
    the current instance will be assigned or migrated to that target.

    Specifying the /FAILOVER qualifier has no direct effect; however,
    it indicates the target of the operations specified by the
    following options:

    Option          Description

    instance_name   The name of any valid running instance in the
                    current hard partition.

    partitionID     The numeric ID of any partition (reflected in
                    the configuration tree) in the current hard
                    partition. An operating system instance is not
                    required to be running with this identifier.

    $$PARTITION     Assigns a resource to the current partition of
                    the current instance.

    $$HARD_         Assigns a resource to the hard partition node
    PARTITION       of the configuration tree. This makes the CPU
                    available to multiple soft partitions below it.

    The /FAILOVER qualifier generates a resource assignment only when
    the current instance crashes.

    Supported only on AlphaServer systems that support partitioning.
