Figure 2: Continuous operations in spite of multiple network or SAN failures
Network and SAN path rerouting is automated by Serviceguard standby LAN failover or HPUX
multi-pathing so that critical application operations continue unaffected. Since the packages run
on their original nodes, users can still get to data.
The next figure shows the result of Serviceguard moving a package to an adoptive node in the
event of a node failure.
