Definition

MX-ONE provides high availability by offering Server Redundancy.

Server redundancy

A standby server can take over the tasks of an ordinary server suffering from, for example, hardware failure. This way, a faulty server can be replaced with a minimum of disturbance. When using server redundancy, ordinary servers and an additional, standby server are grouped as a cluster.

The standby server is prepared with data from the ordinary servers in the cluster and ready to start an instance of any of these servers in case of a server fault.

Settings

Redundancy options are set by the administrator.
