A storage area network (SAN) is provided with redundancy and recovery mechanism. A primary storage switch performs dynamic address translation between logical storage addresses received from host devices and physical addresses of SAN storage arrays. When power failure in the primary storage switch is detected, metadata associated with the dynamic address translation operation is sent to a secondary storage switch via a network connection to provide the dynamic address translation in lieu of the primary storage switch. A storage array experiencing power failure similarly sends cached data to another storage array via a network connection so that the other storage array can substitute the failed storage array. During the power failure, a data backup module in the primary storage switch or the storage array is powered by a temporary power source.

A hierarchical failure management technique uses an integrated equipment hierarchy to automatically pass failure information from control modules to unit modules. Each control module collects failure information and generates a composite failure code by mathematically combining the failure information collected by that module. Modules which are currently needed by a phase of the unit module to carry out a process automatically send respective failure codes to the unit module. The unit module selects the worst failure code from a list of failure codes within the unit module and compares the selected worst failure code to a predetermined threshold value to determine whether the process should continue.

Computing nodes, such as plural information handling systems configured as a High Performance Computing Cluster (HPCC), are managed with plural master nodes configured to have active-active interaction. A resource manager of each of the plural master nodes is operable to simultaneously assign computing node resources to job requests. Reservations are made by a job scheduler in a table of a storage common to the active-active master nodes to avoid conflicts between master nodes and then reserved computing resources are assigned for management by the reserving master node resource manager. A failure manager monitors the master nodes to detect a failure, such as by a lack of communication from a master node for a predetermined time, and recovers a failed master node by assigning the jobs associated with the failed master node to an operating master node.
