- <p>You can specify as many failovers as you like.</p>
- <p>The reason we use a multi-dimensional array rather than a more simple
- one is to permit you to optionally store multiple sets of connection
- values. If, for example, you run multiple environments (development,
- production, test, etc.) under a single installation, you can set up a
- connection group for each, then switch between groups as needed. For
- example, to set up a “test” environment you would do this:</p>
