HA configuration of Node server for db connection

It's about DCH in PA.
I'd like to add a new DB connection host as a fail-over one, like EXEC_HOST in wsm_plc.conf.

For the platform analytics, it's using vertica.
And vertica db consists of some nodes.

Let's suppose we have four nodes.

DCH host is linked to node01.
At that time, if there is a problem with node01, unable to save date to vertica db.
It will be stored to local disk of DCH by DLP.

But I want to keep the db connection even if there is a problem with node01.
If we can set second DB connection host, it will help us.
