Symantec Veritas Cluster Server 5.0

Veritas Cluster Server is the industry's leading cross-platform high-availability solution. With Veritas Cluster Server for VMware ESX, companies can now provide their VMware ESX environments with a higher level of availability because Veritas Cluster Server monitors the application within the virtual machine as well as the health of the virtual machine and underlying server. With the ability to manage multiple physical and virtual clusters from one console regardless of platform or location, Veritas Cluster Server can simplify and automate disaster recovery through failover of virtual machines locally or between clusters in remote locations.

Vmware HA module

VMware High Availability (HA) provides easy to use, cost effective high availability for applications running in virtual machines. In the event of physical server failure, affected virtual machines are automatically restarted on other production servers with spare capacity.

Additionally if there is an OS-related failure within a virtual machine, the failure is detected by VMware HA and the affected virtual machine is restarted on the same physical server. VMware HA allows IT organizations to:

• Minimize un-planned downtime and IT service disruption while eliminating the need for dedicated stand-by hardware and installation of additional software.
• Provide affordable uniform high availability across the entire virtualized IT environment without the cost and complexity of failover solutions tied to either operating systems or specific applications.
