You want to know how to setup Master and Backup for ProxyAV or other ICAP server

Resolution:

This is not currently possible to do. However, you can create an ICAP Service Group on the ProxySG (External Services - Service-Groups) and set the weight of the 'Backup' ProxyAV to a very low value, like 1. The ProxySG will send a small amount of connections to the 'Backup' but will send all connections to it if the 'Master' fails.
