I notice that the MD3220i - being an iSCSI SAN box - has dual controllers. Obviously this is for fault tolerance, but how exactly is this achieved?
Assuming that two H700s are connected to the same backplane, what causes the system to failover to the second controller? Is it a feature in the software/firmware? I'm asking because I'm wondering if I can achieve the same with a 12-bay R515 and something like NexentaStor or QuantaStor.
Many thanks.
