Description

IPitomy now delivers RAID-1 on all platforms of the IPitomy IP PBX. RAID is “Redundant Array of Independent Disks”. RAID-1 is the mirroring of data onto two or more independent Hard Disk Drives. (HDD-Array) (Two HDD’s maximum in IP1100 and IP1200.)

Hospitals, Call Support Centers and any organization that strives to provide the highest level of customer service and shave-off possible down-time will find RAID indispensible.

IPitomy RAID comes in two configurations:

  • Software RAID (new for all platforms)
  • Hardware RAID (new Hot Swap capability)

IPitomy RAID is available in software and hardware variations to allow its deployment onto the smallest system configuration.

Software RAID can be implemented on any platform and delivers the basis of RAID security. RAID status is presented to the user/dealer via the Standard IPitomy software interface.

Hardware RAID can be implemented only on the IP2000 and above since it includes a Hard Disk Drive Array controller board. Hardware RAID now includes Hot Swap operation. Swapping-out the defective drive is possible during runtime with the Front Panel access without opening the chassis! The utility SW resides on the PBX in the software level between the hardware interface BIOS and application layers.  HW RAID is recommended for all larger system applications.

RAID is configured at IPitomy and shipped as a complete product solution. It is not available as a field upgrade.
