Advanced High Availability Cluster Management
Open-E JovianDSS includes failover functionality for iSCSI, FC and NFS, SMB (CIFS), enabling you to set up High Availability Load-Balanced Storage Clusters that ensure reliability and redundancy through failover in case of a server crash. By using the
Open-E JovianDSS Advanced Metro High Availability Cluster Feature Pack, you can create High Availability for two server nodes with storage mirror over Ethernet using a storage at each location (Dual Storage).
- 1Gbps, 10Gbps, 40Gbps, 100Gbps Ethernet support for maximum speed
- Perfect for both rack (from 12" / 30cm) and metro (up to 50 miles / 80km) clusters
- Allows use of less expensive SATA drives
- Easy to configure and manage
- Compared to SAS or FibreChannel, JBODs are not required for Ethernet clusters
- Optional use of RAID controllers
