Launch the Double-Take Availability Application Manager by selectingStart, Programs, Double-Take, Availability, Double-Take Availability Application Manager.
If you have not yet set up protection, the window will show the Welcome screen.
|
When you select an application to protect in the Tasks area on the left pane, you will enter an application protection workflow.
The Setup tab of the Application Manager window leads you through the steps to configure protection for a server using standard Windows-style controls. Enter information in fields, select options from drop-down menus, click buttons, and use menu options to configure protection.
After protection has been set up, use the Monitor tab to view information about the current source/target pair. Based on the current protection status and/or failover state, the Failover, Monitoring, and Protection button text on the Monitor tab will be updated to display the available command. If the Application Manager is not in a state that will allow any of these options to be executed, the corresponding button(s) will be grayed out (disabled).
