StorageCentral SRM: Cluster Support

Overview StorageCentral SRM 5.0 supports clustered Windows NT/2000 Servers and meets IBM's ClusterProven standard. Clustered servers provide high availability and load balancing by attaching two or more servers to a single shared disk array. This technical white paper discusses the architecture, installation, and operation of StorageCentral SRM 5.0. To support high availability, the shared cluster resources are made available on one node of the cluster at a time. This is called an Active/Passive cluster. In the event of a failure on the active cluster node, the shared resources failover to the passive node and users may continue to connect to the cluster without interruption.
