High availability (HA) and failover with dual-NAS architecture
Avoid unplanned downtime and data loss. Create a HA cluster with two TS-h2477AXU-RP - one as the active server, and the other as the passive server. If an unexpected failure or issue with the active server occurs, the passive server provides immediate protection with automatic failover. This ensures continuous storage service and system availability.
Easy management and monitoring
Use the High Availability Manager app to easily configure, remove, or rebuild clusters.
Guaranteed data consistency
Real-time data sync between active and passive servers minimizes the risk of data loss (RPO).
Ensured continuity of critical business
The passive server takes over within 1 minute if the active server fails (RTO <= 90 seconds).
