Abstract
Some embodiments are directed to a method and apparatus for implementing an automatic failover mechanism for a resource. A client accesses a source through a first server using a first session. During the session, the client stores checksum information corresponding to data received via the session with the first server. When it is detected that the session between the first server and the client has failed, the client is automatically connected with second server that has access to the resource. The checksum information is transmitted from the client to the second server, where it is compared with checksum information calculated at the second server, so that a determination can be made as to whether the client can continue processing where it left off when connected to the second server.
