What is meant by the term redundancy in respect to High availability?

What is meant by the term redundancy in respect to High availability?

More then one, of "something". So if the "active" fails, then the "backup" can take over. Depending on exactly what we are talking about, then possibly both can be active at the same time,
sharing the load, and if one fails then the one remaining will do the full load itself.
Thing "something" can be a wide variety of things, since at power agg, disk, network connection, a whole server, a whole disk subsystem, etc. The details regarding architecture etc depends on exactly what
this "something" is.

  • Hi,  This was not what I meant.     The requirement is:      Drag and drop any one of specific list

    Hi,
    This was not what I meant.
    The requirement is:
    Drag and drop any one of specific list of components say x, y,z in the parsys
    Only after the drag and drop of these components other components can be dragged to the parsys. So we can say that the parsys should allow only the specific components to be added first and only after that other components can be added.
    Thanks ,
    Dipti

    Hi there
    I'm guessing that you mean to ask if one is able to force a user to perform a drag-and-drop as part of a simulation?
    Unless you program it in Flash or some other application it isn't avaiable. Check the link below for more.

  • SharePoint Foundation 2013 - Can we use the foundation for intranet portal with high availability ( medium farm)

    Today I had requirement, where we have to use the SharePoint Foundation 2013 (free version) to build an intranet portal ( basic announcement , calendar , department site , document management - only check-in check-out / Version).
     Please help me regarding the license  and size limitations. ( I know the feature comparison of Standard / Enterprise) I just want to know only about the installation process and license.
    6 Server - 2 App / 2 Web / 2 DB cluster ( so total license 6 windows OS license , 2 SQL Server license and Guess no sharepoint licenes)

    Thanks Trevor,
    Is load balance service also comes in free license... So, in that case I can use SharePoint Foundation 2013 version for building a simple Intranet & DMS ( with limited functionality).  And for Workflow and content management we have to write code.
    Windows Network Load Balancing (the NLB feature) is included as part of Windows Server and would offer high availability for traffic bound to the SharePoint servers. WNLB can only associate with up to 4 servers.

  • What's meant by the "Backup" for the photos? Or the "Backup" for the history of "Whatsapp" messages!

    I can't understand what will happen if I backed up my iPhone photos or the "whatsapp" messages

    Hi,
    When an Agent is installed and configured to report to a Management Server, it is automatically configured to fail over to ANY other Management Servers. Failover behavior can be configured via PowerShell scripts or AD Integration. 
    A resource pool is a collection of management servers used to distribute work amongst themselves and take over work from a failed member.” – subset from

  • MDM adapter : what is meant by the database server ?

    Hi all,
    we are testing MDM adapter on PI 7.1 (no eHp). The adapter config requires an MDM server but separately a database server entry as well.
    Does anybody have a working MDM adapter ? if so, what did you fill in in the "database server"
    parameter of the adapter ? is it a URL ? JDBC name ? JNDI name ? IP address ? and to which database ? Í'm assuming the database of the MDM server, but that one is installed on the MDM server
    (for which we configured an IP address in the "mdm server" field).
    additionally, can somebody explain the reason for that separate Database config parameter ?
    I have found no explanations in the documentation so far.

  • What is meant by the "other" segment in my ipod's summary bar?

    My iPod 's memory is full but I noticed that a lot of it is taken up by "other" (1.47GB) I wondered what that is or if I can delete it somehow. My iPod is only 8GB so i need the space for music. I don't have many apps or photos and have deleted what I can. Please help.

    The "other"includes thing not included in the other listed categories. Like music artwork and some app stuff.
    An "other" largeer than about 1 1/2 GB usually indicates that the "other" includes corrupted files.
    First try:
    "First you go settings/general/usage/music/then left swipe over music and press delete and you would think it deletes your music but it doesn't instead it deletes your other but make sure your ipod is connected to a computer while doing this"
    as recommended by:
    How do I get rid of "other" storage: Apple Support Communities
    Next, usually restoring from backup eliminated the corrupted files. However, sometimes restoring to factory settings/new iPod is required.
    To restore from backup see:

  • What is the Laymans Explanation of the Term BT Lin...

    If someone could explain, in the simplest terms,
    A.  What is meant by "Linear Multicast Channels" (please no links !!) and what are its advantages over what we presently have with our present BT Vision service
    B. Do any other providers use this system at the moment
    C. (i) Do any BT Vision Boxes presently in use, use this system NOW. (ii ) if not, are any boxes already pre equiped NOW to be able to use this system when its rolled out, (iii) if so, which present boxes have this capability 
    I ask this basic question as this subject is often discussed on this forum and I haven't a clue what it really means.
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    A) Linear multicast channels are live broadcasts over the internet. So, for example, BBC1HD will be coming to you over the wire rather than the aerial. Multicast is a one to many transmission mechanism which means that the channel only has to be sent over the network once and anyone who wants it picks it up as it comes in. This is distinct from Unicast which means that each device which wants the broadcast has its own copy flying across the network which doesn't scale well for mass communication. Multicast needs specialised hardware on the network to make it happen.
    B) There are other providers which offer live channels over the internet, but whether they're using uni- or multi-cast, I know not. I seem to be remember reading that the other providers don't allow recording of the channels (yet), however BT are going the whole hog and allowing 2 channels to be recorded. Things may have moved on, though, so willing to be corrected on the first bit.
    C) Any of the boxes running the new software can be easily upgraded to get the multicast channels. There are people on this board who are receiving them. Any black boxes running the old software need to be upgraded to the new software first. Silver boxes can't run the necessary software. YouView boxes can't yet until the software is available later in the year.
    Any further confusion, just ask.

    Grade Point Average (GPA) is typically a term used in upper schools and universities. It is the average of the grades of all your classes. 4 is the top GPA.

    Scroll down to the bottom of the terms and conditions, then the Agree button will light up and you can proceed.

  • HT4623 The update to iOS 7 is frozen at the Terms and Conditions page and will not move no matter what I click on.  I cannot access my iPad as it is frozen on this screen.

    The update to iOS 7 is frozen at the Terms and Conditions page and will not move, no matter what I click on.  I cannot access my iPad as it is frozen on this screen.  How do I remedy this nightmare?

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Then try updating the software again.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    No data is lost due to a reset.

  • What are the Terms and Conditions for the AppleID

    What are the Terms and Conditions for the AppleID?   You know, those speed bumps you blow by when trying to achieve something.  Good luck trying to find them.  Apple has one place to take your money, many many different ways to tie you up with disparate Terms and Conditions.   They say that the fine print is important too.  So why are the terms and conditions for the AppleID so hard to find?

    Hi, Wanderer 37.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    I absolutely understand your concern with having access to Terms and Conditions that you have accepted, and at Apple, we want this information to be as transparent as possible.  You can access the iTunes/Apple ID Terms and Conditions here:
