HA401-VG
Features & Benefits
HA401-VG is a 4U 24x SAS 12Gbs bay system with provides high-availability in an active-active configuration. It comes with two AIC Server Boards (one board per node), each supporting dual Intel® Xeon® Scalable family (SKYLAKE/CASCADE LAKE/CASCADE LAKE REFRESH) processors. Both nodes process I/Os and provide simultaneous and balanced access to the logical devices, which increases overall cluster performance significantly. When failover occurs, the secondary node automatically takes over the devices, client connections, and all processes/services of the system. It provides protection from loss of revenue when access to data resources and critical business applications are disrupted. The HA401-VG eliminates SPOFs (single point of failures). It is optimized for mission-critical, enterprise-level storage applications.
