Even if a server pool that does not satisfy the conditions
is selected, creation and modification of an L-Server are
performed without checking.

Server pools without servers that satisfy the spare server
conditions are also displayed.
When a server pool that does not satisfy the conditions is
selected, a warning message is displayed during creation
and modification of an L-Server, checking whether to
continue the operation.

Define compatible server models as a group.
When checking the L-Server definition and the spare server
configuration, the server models in the same group are the
target of switchover.
Examples of server models are as below.
- BX920 S1
- BX920 S2
* Note: The value of SPARE_SVR_COMPAT is changeable. Server switchover may fail depending on the combination of changed
values, such as when a server with no compatibility is set as a spare server.
