Configure generic server cluster mappings

We can configure a generic server cluster mapping. A generic server cluster allows configuration of external servers into a logical cluster that can be used by the proxy server to route requests. Generic servers host a common set of resources and can receive routing actions as a unit. Generic server cluster mappings are configured to specify which generic server clusters a custom advisor will monitor.

Generic server cluster mappings cannot be configured until a proxy server has been configured and a custom advisor has been deployed.

Complete these steps to configure a generic server cluster mapping.
