Advanced Installation

Disaster Recovery

File Access Manager supports disaster recovery, based on building a parallel backup system as described below. This setup will lower any downtime incurred by physical servers going down.

The fail-over between systems is a combination of automatic and manual processes and procedures.

For a full description of the disaster recovery procedure, see the Disaster Recovery Plan document or contact Professional Services.

High Availability

File Access Manager supports a high availability configuration. The solution involves configuring duplicate services on additional servers, and having a customer deploy a load balancer to manage the services traffic. When a production service, or entire server stops for any reason, the load balancer will route the traffic to another service on a different server.

The services configuration is performed in the installation phase, as described in this guide.

High Security Deployment

If you require a higher security deployment, refer to the chapter Recommended Secured Deployment.
