I have a question in regards to this cisco storage server. I only know mostly about Dell's servers and iDRAC. There's two server nodes on the cisco system, I'm assuming there's an option in cisco's "iDRAC" or IPMI to make the nodes redundant/failover or to treat it all as one server? I also have...
