Configuring Full-Server Failover Manager options
You can configure options for the Full-Server Failover Manager client by selecting File, Options.

Refresh Interval—By default, the main window of Full-Server Failover Manager will
automatically update every five (5) seconds. If desired, you can modify the refresh rate. You can
also refresh the main window manually by selecting File, Refresh.

Enable Verbose Logging—By default, Full-Server Failover Manager creates a log that maintains
all processing information. If desired, you can disable the option so that only basic processing
information is logged.

Clear cached credentials on exit—By default, Full-Server Failover Manager will save the user
credentials supplied for each servers. If desired, you can clear the credentials that are cached so
they are not saved. You can also clear the user credentials manually by selecting File, Clear
Cached Credentials.
Saving and reusing configuration options
After you have created a protection pair and configured any of the optional settings you can save
those settings so that you can reuse them for future pairs of servers. Configure your options as
defined in Establishing Server Protection on page 5-1 and Configuring optional settings on
page 5-3. Once you have the settings the way you want them, save them by selecting File, Defaults ,
Save Current Settings as Defaults. This creates a file called FFMDefaults.xml , which will
automatically be the default settings the next time you use the Full-Server Failover Manager. If
desired, you can rename the FFMDefaults.xml file and then save a new set of defaults to
FFMDefaults.xml to be used by the Full-Server Failover Manager. This would allow you to have
multiple failover configurations, which you can be more easily interchanged. You can also use these
different files to initiate failovers without using the Full-Server Failover Manager GUI. For more
information, see Starting failover from a command line on page 7-3.
If you want to reset the configuration settings back to the default settings, select File, Defaults,
Reset Defaults.
NOTE: Because network adapters are uniquely identified on each server, the Network Mapping
is not stored in the default settings.
