Figure 70. Parallel iPrisms
Setup
Before you can set up high availability:
•
The management interface must be enabled on both iPrisms. See
Using the Management
Interface
for more information.
•
The iPrisms must be connected via the management port link. This can be either a crossover
cable or a switched network.
Note: Paired iPrisms use the management interface to keep track of each
other's current running status. Interrupting this link results in a situation where
both iPrisms believe the other is not working, which results in both becoming
active at the same time.
To set up high availability:
1.
From the iPrism home page, select System Settings, then High Availability.
