    The Supervisor

    In the event of a hardware failure, the replacement hardware would need to have it's MAC address mapped to the Supervisor, so the difference in keeping a cold spare around and requesting a replacement license from PipelineFX would be negligible. If the plan were to keep both the hardware and Qube! Supervisor on a hot spare, then you would need to upgrade both your spare and production Supervisor together so you don't get out of sync. In the mean time, you would also need to make sure your database and assets are available to the hot spare pair of hardware/software immediately. This is not common practice and is not a frequent request from our clients, so in keeping with industry standard, we do not offer this.
