Active Directory plugin - AD redundancy

I have two AD servers on my network for redundancy purposes. When one server is down, the Windows clients automatically validates with the other one, but Orchestrator generates random errors.

If I run an nslookup for the domain, the DNS give me two IP addresses. Working on the vRealize Orchestrator appliance, if I ping the domain, it try to reach each IP at a time, even if one AD server is down.

Is there any way to avoid this problem with Orchestrator or should I implement some kind of loadbalancer?

Thanks a lot,

D.
