VCS enables you to perform operations (online, offline, switch) on global service groups from any system in any cluster. You must log on with adequate privileges for cluster operations.

You can bring service groups online or switch them to any system in any cluster. If you do not specify a target system, VCS uses the FailOverPolicy to determine the system.

Management of remote cluster objects is aided by inter-cluster communication enabled by the wide-area connector (wac) process.
