Introduction
  • DECT manager redundancy needs working integrator:
    • Implementing backup DM without planning redundancy for integrator has limited value.
    • For DM redundancy it is recommended to plan redundancy for VI by the machine virtualization.
  • Disable the DECT Base on the Master DECT manager:
    • The backup DM and the DM redundancy feature can only provide redundancy for the DM role, but not for the local base functions!
    • Therefore you should not plan with the local base enabled on the DM, if you are planning for DM redundancy.
  • No fallback to Master DM. Master will become back-up DM
  • Back-up DM does not consume an additional DM license
  • Failover when:
    • Backup DM recognizes, that significant majority of base stations are disconnected from master DM
    • Backup DM recognizes, that significant majority of base stations are connectable to backup DM
      significant >= ( 60% + 1 of active base stations

    • this situation continuously lasts for more than 7 minutes this way preventing failover under regular software update duration (6 minutes).

Failover table
Number of active base-stations

Failover when n external*) active bases are detected

  • as not connecting to original DM
  • as connectable to backup DM

for more than 7 minutes.


*)Local base stations are never detected not connected to DM. 
Local base stations are never detected as connectable to backup DM.
