## Failing from the active to the passive controller

Use this action to force a failover from the active to the passive controller for the following reasons:

- To test your failover configuration.
- If you are having problems accessing data through ServeRAID, attempt to failover to see if that fixes the problem.

Notes:

- This action is available only if clustering is enabled.
- Failover detects only failed controllers.

1. Click a controller from the Main Tree.
2. Click Actions --> Fail from active to passive controller.
3. Click Yes to confirm the failover.
