= The ONTAP Mediator service and the MetroCluster TieBreaker are two NetApp features that can be used to automate switchover in a MetroCluster IP configuration in the event of a site disaster. The ONTAP Mediator service is a software component that monitors the health and connectivity of the MetroCluster nodes and initiates a switchover when it detects a failure of one site or a network partition between the sites. The MetroCluster TieBreaker is a software component that runs on a third site and acts as a quorum witness for the MetroCluster configuration. The MetroCluster TieBreaker prevents split-brain scenarios and enables automatic switchover when one site becomes unavailable or isolated. References = ONTAP Mediator service overview, [MetroCluster TieBreaker overview], Data protection with automatic unplanned switchover in two-node MetroCluster configurations
