Redundancy for managers is possible with Resource Orchestrator.
The following two methods of high availability operation for admin servers are available:
Performing redundancy for managers using clustering software
When operating the admin server in a Windows or Linux environment, redundancy for managers is also possible using clustering software.
Operating the manager on a virtual machine and using the redundancy function of the virtual machine
Managers operate on the Windows guest OS's of Windows, Linux, and Hyper-V environments.
If Virtual I/O by VIOM is used, create the manager on the Windows guest OS of a Hyper-V environment.
To operate managers in clusters on the Windows guest OS of a Hyper-V environment, use the configuration below.
Place the manager on the same VM guest as the ServerView Operations Manager and ServerView Virtual-IO Manager.
Place the manager and VM management software on the same VM guest.
Place storage management software, excluding the manager and Solutions Enabler, on the same VM guest.
Place Solutions Enabler on a VM host because it requires a fibre channel connection.
The configurations are shown below.
