CDROMs CD-ROMs are non-mirrored and can be either SCSI CD-ROM
drives or IDE CD-ROM drives.
Disks
Mirrored
Non-mirrored
Virtual
Disk drives are either mirrored or non-mirrored SCSI disk drives.
Mirrored disks are paired, with one disk installed in each CoServer.
Together they are seen by the FTvirtual Server as a single device.
Mirrored disks store data for the Endurance FTvirtual Server.
Non-mirrored disks do not have a redundant counterpart. If a non-
mirrored disk is failed out of a Endurance Configuration, it has no
counterpart to provide continuous device access.
A file that exists on a CoServer disk and appears to the
CoServer as a separate disk.
Medium Changers
Non-mirrored devices that enable users to automatically move
media into or out of one or more removable medium mass storage
drive(s), such as tape or CD-ROM drives in any random order.
Medium changers may also be called autoloaders, autochangers,
or jukeboxes.
