Introduction
Only available with a virtual integrator managing multiple DECT managers.
- DECT manager redundancy needs working integrator:
- Implementing backup DM without planning redundancy for integrator has limited value.
- For DM redundancy it is recommended to plan redundancy for VI by the machine virtualization.
- Disable the DECT Base on the Master DECT manager:
- The backup DM and the DM redundancy feature can only provide redundancy for the DM role, but not for the local base functions!
- Therefore you should not plan with the local base enabled on the DM, if you are planning for DM redundancy.
- No fallback to Master DM. Master will become back-up DM
- Back-up DM does not consume an additional DM license
- Failover to the backup DECT manager takes place when:
- Backup DM recognizes, that significant majority of base stations are disconnected from master DM
- Backup DM recognizes, that significant majority of base stations are connectable to backup DM
significant >= ( 60% + 1 of active base stations) - this situation continuously lasts for more than 7 minutes this way preventing failover under regular software update duration (6 minutes).
