Abstract

PURPOSE:To surely start both of two information processors in redundant relation even when another system monitor line for transmitting the state information of operation/stop required for starting them each other is disconnected or the like. CONSTITUTION:When the other system monitor line is disconnected, the stop state of the other system device is detected. In this state, a self-system connection request can be outputted to a line switcher for a start request from any one of devices. When start '1' from a 0-system device 1 is preceding, a self- system connection request 5 is outputted to the line switcher 3, and the line is connected to a 0 system. On the other hand, when a 1-system device 2 is started and outputs a self-system connection request 6 at such a time, this time, the line is connected to a 1 system. Afterwards, the 0-system device 1 performs connection state reading 7 and since it is the other system connection, however, the device is started as a standby system. Then, the 1-system device starts the activating operation as an active system.

As described above, since the line connection at the time of starting the device in the conventional example detects the stop of the device of the other system and makes a request for the line connection to the own system device, the connection is made. If the two processing units are started up with a small time difference while each other system monitoring line that detects the stop of the system device continues to detect the stopped state due to a failure, the following problems occur. FIG. 3 shows a system startup sequence in such a case. First, when the 0-system information processing apparatus 1 starts to start up, the system switching request is issued to the line switching unit 3 because the stop of the other system is detected. In response to this, the line switch 3 connects the line to the 0-system device 1. On the other hand, when the 1-system device 2 starts to start up after a short delay, the other-system stoppage is detected, so that the line switching device 3 is requested to connect itself. In response to this, the line switch 3 connects the line to the 1-system device 2 this time. After that, when the 0-system device 1 reads out the connection state, it is not the self-system connection, so the self-system connection request is issued again to connect to the self-system.
Such operations are repeated each other, and there is a problem that startup cannot be performed and operation cannot be performed.
