active-passive node configuration with big IP

DevCentral is for iControl and iRules related development questions. I'll ping the Biz-Dev group to see if they have any insight as to integrating with Oracle Calendar but I would recommend you contact F5 Product Support or check out the Solutions Center on www.f5.com to see if you can find anything there.

 

 

As for restarting services on your secondary server in the condition of a failover, this is a bit beyond what BIG-IP can do on it's own. It sounds to me that you will want to have BIG-IP send out a notification of some kind (most likely a SNMP trap) when it determines the node goes down and a separate monitoring app that has the ability to restart the services on your secondary server does everything needed for the failover. That is just my first thought. I'd definitely recommend getting in touch with the support team to see if they can provide any other insight.
