Webber, S. ; Beirne, J.
Abstract :
An overview is given of the architecture of the Stratus fault-tolerant computer systems, which were the first to use hardware alone to provide fault tolerance in the commercial marketplace. The power subsystem, system boards, and off-board I/O interface buses are examined in some detail. Recovery scenarios and the Stratus service approach are described.<>
