Network System Resiliency - Calrec SUMMA User Manual

NETWORK SYSTEM RESILIENCY

Summa now supports the ability to continue to function if it loses connection to the master core in a Hydra 2
network.
A network must have a core dedicated as a master, which holds the state of the entire network. This state is replicated
around all the other slave systems in the network. If a slave system becomes disconnected from the master it can
promote itself to a master, and continue to operate within the remaining cores and I/O that it can still access.
When the original master becomes available again, the original network configuration can be restored. The method
and order in which slave systems promote themselves to become masters is configurable and should be defined during
commissioning.
