The dormancy status of Content Server can be projected to Connection Broker. To perform this operation, you should be a member of the dm_datacenter_managers, a privileged group whose membership is maintained by superusers. This feature is only applicable for 7.0 and later versions of Content Server.
The Project Dormant Status to Connection Broker and Project Active Status to Connection Broker menu options are available only for Content Servers which is in active state. These options will not be available for Content Servers which is in dormant state. Therefore, you always can perform the Project Dormant Status to Connection Broker operation first followed by Project Active Status to Connection Broker operation.
For a WDK application to login to a repository in a dormant state, dmc_wdk_presets_owner, dmc_wdk_preferences_owner, and dm_bof_registry users should be a member of dm_datacenter_managers.
You can view or modify connection broker projections, as described in Creating or modifying connection broker projections.
