This property is measured in milliseconds. The minimum value is 100 milliseconds. To achieve lower detection times for primary database failures, you must set the ObserverPingInterval and ObserverPingRetry properties before enabling fast-start failover.

The FastStartFailoverThreshold property is ignored when the ObserverPingRetry and ObserverPingInterval properties are set.
