Abstract
A method includes storing data received at a first server to a first file and storing data received at a second server to a second file, where the data in the two files are substantially similar. The two files are distinct, independent files. The first server provides a copy of the first file to the second server to store. The first server then stores additional data to the first file, while the second server maintains the copy of the first file unchanged. The second server may also provide a copy of the second file to the first server to store and continues to store additional data to the second file, while maintaining the copy of the second file on the first server unchanged. Event reports may then be generated using the various files, which provide high availability due to the above method and corresponding system arrangement.
