Introduction

There are various general settings that affect the application server.

Server Configuration Tables

Each application server that joins the backend configuration is represented by an a record in the config_server table in the moving_site database. Depending on your deployment scenario, you might want to optimize your environment by adjusting the settings in this table.

Properties

Whenever a new server joins the deployment, he will be automatically added to the config_server table. On that table you have the following configuration options.

Note: If no server is marked with true, or no server is available (last_
