There are a number of High availablity architectures and features possible with SSIM today.  Note for example that the agents can failover to a multiple backup SSIM systems.  We are currently working on a Technical Brief that describes these archietcures. Also we have some new features coming in 4.6 (Incident forwarding, evant forwarding fail over) that will add to the HA architectures that can be created.

So I can see that SSIM 4.6 will have interesting new features.
Could you tell more about feature called Incident Forwarding? Is it regarding multi-appliance architecture and determines that smaller forwarding appliance will be handle with correlation issues and then forwards newly created incidents to the main correlation appliance? Or maybe is it regarding auto-forwarding through the relay to the helpdesk system?

Hello,
I have one additional question...
In SSIM 4.5.1 in SSIM Console I noticed, that in Manager Configuration --> Web Server exists a parameter "Clustered server virtual address". Does this parameter active and fully functional in SSIM 4.5 or not? If yes, how in practice can we use this parameter in SSIM's cluster deployment? Or maybe it is only nonactive parameter in this version of SSIM...
