Failover and check-pointing
VCM runs as a high-availability pair when VC-Enet modules are installed in horizontally adjacent
interconnect bays. The active VCM is usually on the lowest odd numbered bay when the enclosure is
powered up.
Each time a configuration is changed, it is written to local flash memory and then check-pointed to the
standby module. Configurations can also be backed up to a workstation using the GUI or Virtual Connect
Support Utility.
NOTE: HP recommends saving a configuration after each session and before updating
firmware.
