Valid value

Must be greater than, or equal to, 5.

The FastStartFailoverLagLimit property is not used in maximum protection mode.

Note:

It is recommended to set the FastStartFailoverLagLimit lower than or equal to FastStartFailoverThreshold. When setting FastStartFailoverLagLimit greater than FastStartFailoverThreshold, the primary will keep committing after the Fast-Start Failover is initiated, exposing the configuration to the risk of having two primary databases for a short period of time.

If the limit is reached, then a fast-start failover is not allowed. The lowest possible value is 5 seconds.

This property is used when fast-start failover is enabled and the configuration is operating in maximum performance mode.
