I ran into an issue when using failover. I used on my .bat
--failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333 -u user -p pass

cgminer runs normally but when I press P for pool management I can see that there's actually no backup pool. What's going on?
There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

yes I did!
the .bat starts like this:

cgminer -o http://mint.bitminter.com:8332

the 2nd line is the:

--failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333

--failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333

Each line is .bat file is a new command.  CGMiner and all command line arguments need to be one line.

Such as

cgminer --failover-only -o stratum+tcp://coinotron.com:3333 -u user -p pass -o http://mint.bitminter.com:8332 -u user -p pass
