Storage High Availability

• Purpose of storage high availability is business continuity and/or disaster recovery. This is used to prevent one or more failures of hardware or software resulting in data loss.

• The common understanding of storage high availability is redundancy within a cluster of servers when viewed from a server centric aspect and cluster of storage array units from a storage centric view.

• Storage High Availability can be viewed from these aspects:

• Multiple servers accessing single storage devices
• Storage Arrays mirroring across multiple frames or within a single frame.
• Single or multiple servers accessing multiple storage devices.

• Each of these aspects of High Availability can be found within the Mt Xia environment or that of its clients
