Workload protection

Note: If you have previously used this source and target pair, you will be prompted

to reuse the previous configuration. If you select Yes, your previous
configuration settings will be used. If you do not want to use the previous
configuration settings (perhaps the source or target configuration has
changed since you configured the connection), select No to use the default
configuration settings.

If you select a source that is currently unavailable, you will be prompted to
select the target first. When you select the target then the source, you may
get a failover prompt or the same source is unavailable prompt. This will
depend on if a failover condition has been met according to the original
failover configuration.

You cannot protect a server if it is already functioning as a target.

If no servers are populated in the lists (perhaps the server you need is in a
child domain), click Advanced Find to add servers to the lists. Advanced
Find
is not available for all application protections. See

Managing servers

for more details on Advanced Find.

Server names must be 15 characters or less.

You will be unable to configure protection when your environment between
the Application Manager and the source or target contains a NAT or certain
VPN configurations. This is due to WMI limitations. Contact technical
support for instructions to configure protection manually.

Exchange Note: The target you select must be in the same Exchange

administrative group as the source.

If you are protecting Exchange 2003 and it is running in mixed
mode, the first installed Exchange virtual server contains the
MTA (Message Transfer Agent) resource that is needed to
communicate with versions prior to Exchange 2003. If you do
not failover all Exchange virtual servers, then any user who is in
a different mail store than the first one may not be able to route
mail.
