Failover and check-pointing

Virtual Connect Manager runs as a high-availability pair when Virtual Connect Ethernet modules are

installed in interconnect bay 1 and interconnect bay 2. The active VC Manager is usually on interconnect

bay 1 at power up.

IMPORTANT:

To support high availability, always install Virtual Connect Ethernet modules in

interconnect bays 1 and 2.

If you are not using dynamic DNS, use the Onboard Administrator to access the Virtual Connect Ethernet

module in bay 1. Then, you can optionally set a Virtual Connect Domain IP address so that you have a

consistent IP address to access VC Manager whether it is running from bay 1 or from bay 2 because of a
failover.
Each time a configuration is changed, it is written to local flash memory and then check-pointed to the

standby module. Configurations can also be backed up to a workstation using the GUI or Virtual Connect

Support Utility.
