Assigning an Active
Server Class
After you have assigned servers to server classes, you must designate an active server
class for each service.
A service can be included in many servers and a server can be included in many server
classes; therefore, a service can be included in many server classes. The requester
must know which server class to use for request messages; this server class is the
active server class for the service. You assign the active server class for each service in
this project on the Server Class Mapping screen.
Figure 7-1 shows an example of service to server to server class mapping. In this
example, Service A and Service B are both included in Server Class X; however, only
Service A is active in Server Class X.
