By default, Application Manager generates all the required scripts for you automatically based on your

system configuration. You can also edit the scripts to add, modify, or delete specific commands. To

edit a script:

1.

Click on the button for the script you want to update. The script file will be displayed using your

machine’s default editor.

2.

Enter your changes.

3.

Save the script file.

Any change you make to the script in the editor will be copied to the appropriate server when

configuration changes are accepted, thus overwriting any changes that have been made outside the

Application Manager.
The scripts can be overwritten by certain operations during setup. For example, any changes to

configuration options done in the Application Manager will overwrite previous script changes. If you

want to make permanent changes to a script, you must modify the appropriate .txt file within

the Application Manager installation directory. If there is more than one client machine that will be

configuring failover, the change must be made to all the appropriate .txt files.
Before running Application Manager multiple times (for example, when re-enabling protection after a

failover/failback), save a copy of your post-restore and pre-failback batch files. After Application

Manager executes, replace the default script file(s) with the customized file(s) that you saved.

Items to failover

Select the items to failover.

1.

Select the Server Name checkbox if you want the source name to be added to the target when

failover occurs (Default = selected).

2.

Select the Shares checkbox if you want the source file shares to be added to the target when

failover occurs (Default = NOT selected).

3.

Select the Active Directory Hostname (SPNs) checkbox if you want to remove the host SPN

(Service Principle Name) automatically from Active Directory for the source and add it to Active

Directory for the target during failover (Default = selected).

NOTE:

If you are using Active Directory, you should enable this option. Otherwise, you may

experience problems with failover.
