High Availability

High Availability (HA) is a system design and service implementation that prevents downtime and
ensures uninterrupted service.

HA overview

To configure the HA feature on the Brocade Virtual ADX, the setup requires two Brocade Virtual
ADXs, where one device must be active and the other device must be in the standby mode. The
active device accepts connections and manages servers, and the standby device monitors the
active device. If the active device fails to accept connections, the standby device takes over the
active device functions.
