Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-256902 APAS-AT-000032 SV-256902r960915_rule Medium
Description
Automation Controller hosts must be capable of failing over to another Automation Controller host which can handle application and logging functions upon detection of an application log processing failure. This will allow continual operation of the application and logging functions while minimizing the loss of operation for the users and loss of log data.
