SystemNames

The names of the configured systems or system groups that you want to use to answer the question.

By default, Answer Server sends each question to all configured systems, in the order that you configure them in the [Systems] configuration section.

You can use SystemNames to restrict the number and type of systems that you send the question to. In this case, Answer Server also retrieve answers from the systems in the order that you specify them in SystemNames.

The system name is the name of the configuration section in the Answer Server configuration file where the system is configured. System names are case sensitive. Separate multiple system names with commas. There must be no space before or after a comma.

As well as individual system names, you can also specify configured system groups. In this case, Answer Server retrieves answers from the systems in each group that you specify. When more than one group in the action contains the same individual system, Answer Server queries it only once.

When you use groups, Answer Serverretrieves answers from the groups in the order that you specify them in SystemNames. Within each group, Answer Server retrieves answers in the order that the systems are configured in the group, unless it already has answers from the system from an earlier group.
