This article will describe the TelcoBridges Tdev High Availability feature. The hardware and software are design with the following 2 goals in mind:

  1. First and foremost, to recover from a system failure to minimize the system down time or instability as much as possible. This is achieve with a fault tolerant and redundancy architecture.
  2. Secondly, to keep active calls open after a fail-over whenever possible.


Important:Tmedia high availability features are described here

TelcoBridges High Availability

TelcoBridges High Availability should be seen as a collection of high availability and redundancy features instead of one single feature. This means that customer can go as little or as far as they want to create a high availability system.


Definitions

Here is a list of terms used in the description of the high availability features:

TelcoBridges Hardware HA Product Checklist

This checklist provides a quick overview of each Tdev models and their high availability support

Products Hardware High Availability Features

TMP800 NoN NoN NoN YesY
TMP5900 YesY YesY YesY NoN
TMP6400 YesY (with 2 U) YesY YesY YesY
TMP7900 YesY YesY YesY YesY


Software Features


Installation, Maintenance and Provisioning

This section will show how to install, upgrade and configure a high availability system.

First, we will look at the software installation and provisioning (Host redundancy).
