This section explains how to change physical server usage.
Changing server usage is the function for preparing more L-Servers than physical servers and is used by switching the startup L-Server. This function enables effective use of server resources as the physical server can be changed depending on the time period and situation.
The boot disk and IP address of the L-Server are stored, even while other L-Servers use the physical server.
This function can be used, when an L-Server is actually a physical server. When using virtual servers, multiple L-Servers can be located on a single VM host without any specific configuration, giving the same effects as changing the physical server.
The following two methods are available:
Method 1: Use multiple L-Servers, switching between them, on a single physical server
The physical server which starts the L-Server is always the same.
Method 2: Use multiple L-Servers, switching between them, on unused servers within a server pool
Depending on the available spare servers in a server pool, the physical server which starts the L-Server will change.
