Command History
Usage Guidelines Use this command to load-balance quota transactions among multiple active quota servers.
When the CSG2 uses multiple active quota servers, it sends all quota transactions for a given user to a
particular quota server. The CSG2 stores that quota server assignment in the CSG2 User Table entry for
that user.
For example, if a configuration has four active quota servers, and one of those quota servers fails, the
CSG2 looks for a suitable standby quota server. If the CSG2 finds a suitable standby quota server, it
transfers all of the quota transactions from the failed quota server to the new quota server, and updates
all of the affected User Table entries to reflect the new quota server assignment.
However, if the CSG2 cannot find a suitable standby quota server, it redistributes all of the quota
transactions from the failed quota server among the remaining three active quota servers. It does so by
finding the User Table entries for the affected users in the quota transactions. The CSG2 then assigns
one of the active quota servers to each affected user, and updates the User Table entries to reflect the new
quota server assignments. The CSG2 reassigns all quota transactions for a given user to the same quota
server.
number Number of quota servers to activate. The range is from 1 to 32. The
default value is 1.
