7.5.10. Test Failover
In this task, disable the network card or turn off the server that hosts one of
the root targets for the \\domain\
Public
namespace. Do the same for a
server that hosts one of the folder targets for the Tools folder. After the
network cards are disabled or the servers are turned off, repeat the
procedures in "Task 9: Browse the Namespace." The procedures should
work because another server continues to host the \\domain\Public
namespace and the Tools folder.
