  1. POWER REDUNDANCY Dr. John P. Abraham Professor UTPA

  2. This slide series is a summary of what we discussed in class. • Power • Broadband • Hard Drive • Backup • Cluster

  3. Redundant Array of Inexpensive Servers • RAIS stripes and mirrors application code and memory across an array of ordinary servers using the standard RAID schemata of level 0, level 1, level 5, level 1+0. This is possible through the invention of a radical new memory management system called Versioned Memory. • However, I want to start with the old fashioned way of achieving redundancy.

  4. Power Supply Redundancy • Power Source • AC • Generator • Solar

  5. AC • Problem with spikes and browns • Should not have other appliances or devices connected to it. • Should have a direct circuit breaker • Use surge protection for the whole circuit. • I looked up Square D surge protector as an example. • Such outlets should be color coded (Orange or Red)

  6. Generator • Should maintain it properly. Must start it each week • Need to have a transfer switch. There is a time delay. Meanwhile your computer will go off.

  7. Solar with Battery back up • Need to have pure sine wave inverters to be used with electronic equipment. • You can connect these batteries to the UPS • Solar Array needs to have a voltage controller, to keep it from over charging the batteries. • Also needs to have a transfer switch. • You can also use APC Redundant Automatic Transfer switch or similar ones

  8. UPS • A must for all servers • Check the voltage and wattage rating • VA stands for voltage Amp – How much load a UPS can handle at any given time. This will tell you how many devices can be plugged in.

  9. UPS software • APC powerchute software • Powercom • Powershield • Notifies the server of the remaining power • Notifies administrator through text or email • Sends message to clients • Closes files and shuts down
