When is it recommended to use colon-separated list for redundancy rather than true redundant servers?

0

When there’s less system administration available to monitor license servers, and when the applications are not mission- critical. The colon-separated list has some other advantages: it’s more forgiving if you lose quorum; it’s not limited to 3 servers (any number will work); and for wide-area networks, you can make servers available locally, with remote servers available as backup.
