Hi, <br />
I know it is not best practice, but wil it work? If one location fails FT should keep the FOM available for the remaining node... correct?

I see what you mean ... I don't think it will work like it should though, not sure, it still resides on the same storage it is trying to protect, so it will give some errors I assume...

Hi,<br />
<br />
I like to have automatic failover for a 2 site HP lefthand SAN configuration. To avoid split-brain scenarios, HP recommends a 3rd failover site for the FOM. Sadly this is not a very likely option for my customer. Can I have a FOM setup as a FT machine nested in our VM cluster so we have automatic failover for the HP SAN if either one of the sites goed down?<br />
<br />
Regards,<br />
Marcel

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.

Storage

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.

Virtualization

Network Management involves issues that are independent of specific hardware or software, including email policies, upgrade planning, backup scheduling and working with managed service providers for Desktop-As-A-Service (DaaS), Software-As-A-Service (SaaS) and the like through the use of tools, coupled with manufacturer standards, best practice guidelines, policies and procedures plus all other relevant documentation. Network management also includes monitoring, alerting and reporting, management reporting, planning for device or service updates, the backup of configurations, the setting of key performance indicators and measures (KPIs/KPMs), associated service level agreements and problem records as part of the IT Service Management (ITSM) framework.
