84 Protecting a SharePoint Server
• Create Failover Scripts — (Default = Selected) Application Manager will automatically generate the
failover/failback scripts and copy them to the appropriate server. This should be disabled only if you have
customized your script files and do not want them to be overwritten.
• Create Connection — (Default = Selected) Application Manager will create the appropriate connection
between the source and target using the automatically-generated replication set. This should only be
disabled if you would like to verify the replication set that is created by Application Manager prior to
connection.
• Create Failover Monitor — (Default = Selected) Application Manager will create a failover monitor on the
target to monitor the source for failure. This monitor will use the failover parameters specified during
configuration, as well as the script files that have been created.
SharePoint settings
The SharePoint tab includes options you can use to join or extend the target front-end web server to the
production SharePoint configuration or web farm. The Application Manager determines the Microsoft SQL
server and configuration database used by the source SharePoint web front-end server, then uses that
information to connect the specified target web server to the same SharePoint configuration. The target web
server specified can be local or remote.
NOTE: The target web server must have the same version of SharePoint installed as the production
SharePoint web server. For best results, SharePoint should be installed but not yet configured on the target web
server.
In order to extend the target web server, you will also need to add the Sharepoint administrator account to the
local Domain Admin group on the target server before you extend the target web front-end server into the
farm.
The first five fields will be filled in automatically when you select the Configure Target Web Server checkbox. You
can modify these values.
• Server Name —The NetBIOS or physical name of the target SharePoint web server.
• IP Address —IP address for the target web server.
