1.5.1 C/S system mode

The C/S system mode consists of client and server systems only. No host computer is used. This mode connects multiple systems via a LAN so that the systems are linked with each other and function as a single overall job processing system.

If you install HA Monitor in the server systems, you can reduce the amount of down time that is caused by server failures, thereby reducing adverse effects on the client's job processing.

The following figure provides an example of the C/S system mode.
