# The virtual server is displayed as out of service, even if it is configured with a
# backup server farm, which is healthy. This behaviour is useful if the backup server farm
# is configured as an HTTP redirect server farm to a different site and you are using some
# DNS-based GSLB method, where some connections are still being directed to the failed
# virtual server.
# If you want the CSM to consider the virtual server healthy and operational if the backup
# server farm is healthy, you just need to change an environmental variable.
