As storage systems evolved, the ability to connect more than one host to a storage array was developed. By “dual-hosting” a given storage array, the spare system could be brought online quicker in the event of failure. Reducing time to recovery is key to increasing availability. Dual hosting storage meant that the spare system would no longer have to be manually cabled on a failure. Having a system ready to utilize application data lead to development of scripts to assist the spare server in functioning as a “takeover” server.

This paper looks at the Veritas cluster server technology and how it supports maximum "availability" for application clustering.
