Exchange Failover Utility

When you configure Exchange for protection, Application Manager creates customized
scripts based on the settings you choose. The scripts are based on the Exchange
Failover Utility (EFO). Generally, you do not need to run the Exchange Failover Utility
from the command line or modify the scripts that Application Manager creates, however,
the syntax for the utility is provided below in case that need arises.
