| SoftLayer Introduces Innovative Recovery Solution SoftLayer has unveiled RescueLayer, an automated system for restoring and repairing servers after crashes or failures. SoftLayer customers can use RescueLayer to reboot a failed server into a RAM-disk Unix, Linux or Windows PE rescue kernel. The rescue system is launched through SoftLayer's management portal. RescueLayer provides system administrators exceptional access to the rescue kernel and their server. It automatically sets the recovery kernel with a server's regularly assigned IP addresses, allowing full access via both the private or public network. Administrators can SSH/VNC into the recovery kernel, use FTP/HTTP to download utilities and other software needed for restoring the system, and access NAS and all other backend service network servers. They have full access to onboard file systems and locally attached storage as well. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Computing News :: home page |
