Abstract
Various methods and systems for maintaining a communication protocol connection during a failover are disclosed. One method involves obtaining a first value of a parameter associated with a communication protocol connection between a primary node and a client and sending a flow control message to the client, in response to detecting that the primary node is failed. The flow control message includes the parameter.
