Previously, implementing mass storage controller redundancy required
duplication of the mass storage controllers, as well as the disk drives. By
pairing OSCRO with RAID 5 arrays, you gain the benefits of fault tolerance for
the disks and the controllers without the additional costs of complete disk drive
redundancy.
OSCRO extends the reliability of Windows NT servers by ensuring continuing
operation of the system, even when a mass storage controller fails. The Compaq
Online Storage Controller Recovery Utility for Windows NT provides a means
of managing the mass storage controllers of the entire Windows NT network
from a single management station.
OSCRO is a natural partner for Compaq PCI Hot Plug technology. The
combination of the two eliminates the need to shut the system down when a
mass storage controller fails. OSCRO permits the system to continue operating
after a controller failure, and PCI Hot Plug technology allows replacement of
the failed controller without shutting the system down.
