Note: KMIP Key Manager requires at least two (2) servers and can
have up to ten (10) servers for increased failover capacity.
Assign your key servers on this screen in the order in which
you want failover to occur.
For an initial key request, the library tries server #1 (the
primary server) first. If server #1 is not available to perform
a key request, the library tries server #2. If server #2 is not
available, the library will try server #3, and so on, in order.
Once the library identifies a server that can perform the
request, this server remains the active server until it fails a

library starts over and uses server #1 for key requests.
