1. From the Resource page, click Enable in the left pane.
2. In the Enable Resource dialog box, click OK.

Disabling a Resource

Disable a resource in a service group to prevent it from coming online. This disabling process is useful when you want VCS to temporarily "ignore" a resource (rather than delete it) while the service group is still online.

  To disable a resource

1. From the Resource page, click Disable in the left pane.
2. In the Disable Resource dialog box, click OK.

Enabling All Resources in a Service Group

  All resources in the group are already enabled.

  To enable all resources in a service group:
