you create.
Create a Virtual SQL Server
To create a Virtual SQL Server, start the PolyServe Management Console
and then select Matrix > Add > Add Virtual SQL Server. The Add Virtual
SQL Server window appears.
Virtual IP: Specify the IP address that will be associated with this Virtual
SQL Server.
Name: Enter the NetBIOS name for this Virtual SQL Server; the name can
include up to 15 characters.
Application name: An “application” provides a tag to group Virtual SQL
Servers and related virtual SQL instances on the Applications tab. All of
the resources associated with the application can then be treated as a unit
on the Applications tab. You can specify a new application name, select
an existing application name, or leave this field blank. However, if you do
not assign a name, Matrix Server will use the IP address for the Virtual
SQL Server as the application name.
