Additional

When Citrix XenServer MP fails to connect to the configured pool master, it tries to determine the failover master for the pool. If the original pool master cannot be contacted and the failover pool master cannot be determined, the alert is raised.

It is possible that the pool master election is currently in effect and the connection to the pool is only temporarily down. In such case, the alert of the “XenServer pool master changed” monitor soon follows and the connection to the pool is resumed.
