Hot Standby Engine » Backup Polling to Ensure 24x7 Monitoring
The Orion Hot Standby Engine will consistently check the primary systems' ability to function and record availability and performance data. In the event of a failure, the Hot Standby Engine will automatically assume network monitoring responsibility. When a failed polling engine returns to an operational state, the Hot Standby Engine will automatically return all monitoring tasks to the original polling engine.
Key Features:
- Continuously checks the primary Orion system for activity
- Automatically takes over monitoring, statistic collection and alerting if the primary system is down
- Automatically enters into "standby mode" when the primary Orion server recovers
- Sends notifications for polling engine failures
- Offers one-to-many failover capability
- Runs on a separate server leveraging your existing SQL database
- Includes a redundant Website
- Does not back up the Orion database (Uses Database Manager or SQL Enterprise Manager to perform backups)
- Must be installed on a separate server
