Use this form to set up an AOS instance as a batch server or a load balancing server.

A batch server is an Application Object Server (AOS) instance that processes batch jobs. The first AOS to be set up is automatically designated as a batch server. You can designate additional servers, and you can specify when each server is available. Use multiple batch servers to increase throughput and reduce the time that it takes to run batches.

A load balancing server is an AOS instance that balances the load of client connections to Microsoft Dynamics AX. For more information about load balancing, see the Server and Database Administration Guide.
