It's always been one of their selling points. That and using Fibernetics and their data center. They have redundant networks. So it was true. They just didn't fail over to them. So, It's honest marketing. We just assume redundant means they will fail over.

Ya they have redundancy, but not automatic it seems.

Redudancy isn't automatic or not. It just is. It's the failover that's automatic. SAN sales people (and many others) pull this kind of stuff all the time.

I had a blip in the panel, but I can also confirm that Re-Image has been replaced with upgrade hardware.
When the panel is working, I DO still have access to power on / off.

But is it actually working? Mine is still there but it never actually powers off or restarts. It just says it is.

Panel is down for me again with this.

Like how most SAN marketing works. It's redundant like they bought more than they need.

Not until people threaten them.

Yes. Like in England having redundancy means you have more employees than necessary. Being redundant means you'll be fired.
I have redundant couches. I can only sit on one at a time.

Does it do anything? Or is it a marketing button?

I should have thought to check it... but I was actually just waiting around for my system to come back up so I could make backups.

A couple of us checked it. It does nothing.
