... property value is "1", which corresponds to Operational. You can extend the list to include additional statuses, and any status in the list is not ignored during binding. Example: If sa.active_operational_status = "1,2", then both Operational and Non- operational hosts are considered valid for binding. The status attribute is defined by the following values: • 1 – Operational • 2 – ...

Script include: ASCLoadBalancerUtil The system reads this setting to determine which operational-status values count as active when processing application service candidates. Changing it changes which records are treated as active, and the default is 1. /sys_script_include.do?sys_id=b96bd22c77ce811039fca1b35b5a9968
Script include: ASCRecalculateUtil The code reads this setting when the utility initializes and stores it as the active operational status; the shown code does not reveal how that value affects users or administrators. If the setting is unset, it defaults to 1. /sys_script_include.do?sys_id=16eae30977760110ea4d79ba2c5a99a0
