VSM and SVA Component Redundancy: Virtual Storage Manager (VSM) System and Shared Virtual Array (SVA)
Overview In a world of networked computers, workgroups, data sharing and file servers, the very notion that a company’s data should be at the mercy of a single component isn’t an option. Access to data has to be completely reliable and that doesn’t mean a set of mirror-image storage systems within one data complex. What it does mean is that the data storage system must be designed to be fault tolerant. A component may fail, but data processing MUST continue! The V-Series Shared Virtual Array (SVA) disk systems and Virtual Storage Manager (VSM) system were engineered with reliability in mind and have built-in redundancy in nearly every major component that is a potential point of failure that could halt processing.
