A method and apparatus are disclosed that provide expedited recovery in a communication system employing redundancy. The method includes establishing connections between a second server and each of a first mobile device and a second mobile device; receiving, by the second server from the first mobile device, an indication that a first server has recovered, wherein the first server and the second server are redundant servers and wherein the second server acts as a backup server for the first server; and based on the indication received from the first mobile device, informing, by the second server, a second mobile device of the recovery of the first server, thereby expediting a connecting, or a re-connecting, of the second mobile device to the first server.
