   3. If necessary, clear the Critical or Enabled check boxes; these options are selected by default.

   A critical resource indicates the service group is faulted when the resource, or any resource it depends on, faults. An enabled resource indicates agents monitor the resource. If a resource is created dynamically while VCS is running, you must enable the resource before VCS monitors it. VCS will not bring a disabled resource nor its children online, even if the children are enabled.

   4. Click the edit icon (...) to edit an attribute for the selected resource type. After editing the attribute, click Save in the Edit Attribute dialog box to return to the Add Resource dialog box.
   5. Click OK.
