Fault Tolerance
Fault Tolerance allows the server to recover from a hardware problem without
interrupting the serverss performance. SCSI Managed Array Technology
(SMART) adds a controller to deliver the following functions:
RAID 0 - no fault tolerance
RAID 1 - mirroring
RAID 4 - data guarding
RAID 5 - distributed data guarding
Fault tolerance for the ProLiant 1850R server is covered in the online
documentation on the System Reference Library CD.
Compaq Insight Manager
Compaq Insight Manger is a software utility for collecting server information.
This information is used by Insight Manager to perform the following functions:
Send fault condition alerts to a predetermined destination
Monitor fault conditions and server performance
Control server security and configuration
Remotely control servers
Initiate rapid recovery services
In Compaq servers, every hardware subsystem, such as disk storage, system
memory, and system processor, has a robust set of management capabilities.
Compaq Full-Spectrum Fault Management prevents faults before they happen,
keeps the system running in the unlikely event of a failure, and delivers rapid
server recovery to normal operation after a fault. See Chapter 5, Server
Configuration and Utilities, for more information.
