Application Manager menu commands

Based on the current protection status and/or failover state, the Protection, Monitoring, and Failover/Failback menu options will be updated to display the available commands. If the Application Manager is not in a state that will allow any of these options to be executed, the corresponding menu option(s) will be grayed out (disabled).

The following menu options are available on the main Application Manager window:

File menu

New—Start a new application server protection
Exit—Exit the Application Manager

Tools menu
