Yes, we are in the process to upgrade to 11.2.0.4.x but interim were looking for an event whenever scan failover triggers.

In the end, we wrote a script to compare services registered to 3 scans and report an issue when discrepancy is found. We are good for now.

Thanks for your response.

You trying to capture such a failover to perhaps apply the manual workaround mentioned in the note will require you to tail logs or implement an additional monitoring for the SCAN listener(s). As you noticed, the FAN events do not include listener events, as they are meant for clients. The client uses a service registered with the listener to connect to the DB. Hence, mainly service events will be sent to the client.
