694.0. "RTR perf and availability figures wanted" by AEOENG::16.40.240.154::annecy::lehy () Tue Jun 03 1997 21:35

The Telecom Level Requirements in term of high availability are very 
challenging

Service Availability Requirements
   Average system downtime < 3 min/year		

Service retainability requirements	
   2/100000 per minute (the number of communications that are broken due to 
           temporary network outages, systems hangs ...)

System Failure Rates	
   Outage duration > 3 seconds:    Failure rate < 5 /year			
	           > 30 seconds	   Failure rate < 0.95 / year			
                   > 1 mn	   Failure rate < 0.6 / year
   etc...

The customer wishes to port all its GSM nodes onto platforms running 
windows NT.

The only area where I can see NT today is the database server. 
But NT clusters are not the solution (approx 8 to 5 hrs of downtime per 
year according to the marketing presentation)

Which type of figure can I expect with a solution based on RTR ?

Performance data is also welcome. (will a RTR solution sustain 2000 tps/s)
