Server cluster collection
Use this page to view information about and change configuration settings for a cluster. A cluster consists of a group of appservers. If one of the appservers fails, requests are routed to other members of the cluster.

To define a new cluster, click New to start the Create a new cluster wizard.
- Name
- Specify a logical name for the cluster. The name must be unique among clusters within the containing cell.
- Status
- Specify whether a cluster is stopped, partially started, started, or partially stopped.
If all cluster members are stopped, stopped displays for the status and state of the cluster. After you click Start or Ripplestart to start a cluster, the cluster state briefly displays as starting, and each server that is a member of that cluster launches if it is not already running. When the first member launches, the state changes to partially started. The state remains partially started until all cluster members are running. When all cluster members are running, the state changes to running and the status is started. Similarly, when you click Stop or ImmediateStop to stop a cluster, the state changes to partially stopped when the first member stops and then changes to stopped when all cluster members are not running.
