3. If you would like to enable this Application Server’s Auto-failover function, in the Auto-failover column, select Enabled in the row associated with this Application Server, and then click Apply.

NOTE: If you would like the Auto-failover function to remain disabled for all Main Application Servers, clear the check box in the header row of the Auto-failover column, and then click Apply. |
