The Center, and the health sciences faculty and students are fortunate to have Mr. Parsons managing our instructional servers. Under Mr. Parson's leadership, the Center has systematically added each new server, established reliability and maintenance policies, and kept service operating without any equipment failures, a track record the Center is very proud to have. Our second goal was the expansion of the Center's server hardware. To improve reliability speed and system redundancy. The servers have redundant hard drives and power supplies with monitoring software to warn of potential or unnoticed failures.
Backup hardware is in place for fast repair in the event of a hardware failure.
Uninterrupted power supplies protect the systems from power fluctuations and failures. Regular data backups are maintained to prevent loss of information. Finished sites are moved to the appropriate production server. Also serves as backup hardware for other servers to expedite repairs in the event of a hardware problem. Works with the SQL server and Streaming Media server.
