Marking a resource as non critical

Last published : Jun 19, 2026
In the Management Server console, you can mark a critical resource in a service group as non-critical. When you mark a critical resource as non-critical, the service group does not move to the faulted state when the resources that are marked non-critical, or its dependent resources are faulted.
To perform this task, your user group must be assigned the Admin role or the Operator role on the service group or the Availability perspective. The permission on the service group may be explicitly assigned or inherited from a parent Organization or cluster.
To mark a resource as non critical
  1. In the Management Server console, go to the Availability perspective and selectManage in the left pane.
  2. Expand the Organization or Uncategorized Clusters to locate the cluster.
  3. Expand the cluster, the Service Groups node, the service group, and then the resource type to locate the resource.
  4. Right-click on the required resource and select Mark Non Critical.
  5. In the Mark Resource as Non Critical panel, click OK.
  6. In the Result panel, click OK.
