Add new Failover Task without stopping Failover manager

[pesche]

Hi

I am testing the failover manager function in order to adapt it to our productiv environment. For testing
purposes I installed a storage environment with Data Storage Software V6 (6.0up90.8101.5845 64bit) with trial license.

Now, if I want to add a new failover over task I need to stop the failover manager, which means I need to shutdown all server connected to
the storage. This is absolutely unusable. Is there another way to do this or am I missing something?

thanks

There is a small update to allow you to add the new task without stopping the service, please request this from the pre-sales team.
In the next release, you can add the new tasks without stopping the failover service. This will be released very shortly.
