3-2. Conguring Redundant Servers - Failover
VAST2 servers can be configured into two groups: Active and Redundant. The Active group
performs daily recording and monitoring tasks, while the Redundant group acts as the standby
servers. In the event of server failures, the Redundant group becomes active, and takes over
the recording task.
The Redundant server group conguration consists of the following:
1. One VAST2 server designated as the CMS (Central Management server) VAST central
management server.
2. At least one VAST2 server in the Active group.
3. At least one VAST2 server in the Redundant group.
4. Gb/s network or higher-speed connection among the servers. All Active and Redundant
groups can reside in dierent subnets, provided that static IPs are congured for these
servers.
