Abstract
A system and method for logical console verification and fallback. Conformity of physical equipment configurations with the logical console control and fallback plan is verified by sending messages through the backup paths and testing message response. The method of resource server or logical console fallback to a backup resource server or logical console includes the steps of verifying operational status of each physical component defined by the logical configuration description to assure availability. Tests can be manually or automatically generated. If all tests are completed successfully, resource server or console fallback is initiated.
