73 Mail Virus Scrubber Redundancy Group

The Mail Virus Scrubber Redundancy Group target is a logical grouping of Virus Scrubber agent monitored targets that have identical configuration, characteristics, and functionality. While a single Virus Scrubber server instance is vulnerable to the failure of its host or system, a redundant group of Virus Scrubbers continues to function despite the loss of a Virus Scrubber server instance, hiding any such failure from clients, and allowing other Virus Scrubber server instances in the group to service the requests.
