The MQ Appliance messaging server must be configured to fail over to another system in the event of log subsystem failure.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>This requirement is dependent upon system MAC and availability. If the system MAC and availability do not specify redundancy requirements, this requirement is NA. It is critical that, when a system is at risk of failing to process logs as required, it detects and takes action to mitigate the failure. Messaging servers must be capable of failing over to another system which can handle application and logging functions upon detection of an application log processing failure. This will allow continual operation of the application and logging functions while minimizing the loss of operation for the users and loss of log data. To ensure proper configuration, system HA design steps must be taken and implemented.
