HTTP method and URI

Use this request to retrieve any auto-failover settings for a cluster. Auto-failover is a global setting for all clusters. Authenticated is required to read this value.

GET /settings/autoFailover

Parameters include:

• enabled: Value is true or false. True if auto-failover is enabled; False if it is not.
• timeout: Seconds that must elapse before auto-failover executes on a cluster.
• count: Value is 0 or 1. Number of times any node in a cluster can be automatically failed-over. After one auto-failover occurs, the count is set to 1 and Couchbase server does not perform auto-failover for the cluster again unless the count is reset to 0. To failover more than one node at a time in a cluster, perform a manual failover.
