The Reality of a Fax Server

messaging services since 1992

Most people do not think about what can go wrong

with a fax server until it stops working!

Do you have a disaster recovery (DR) plan?

Do you know how your mission critical faxes

will be delivered if your fax server fails?

Do you know which departments have mission

critical fax requirements?

Will cash flow or manufacturing be impacted

by the fax server failure?

Here are some likely risks to consider when

evaluating what can go wrong with your fax

sever:

Part Failure - If it was a hard drive or power

supply, those can often be remedied with ease.

Even if the server itself fails, you can usually

install a new server within 24 hours.

Telecommunications Failure - If you

experience a telecommunications issue, you

essentially need a separate server,

geographically located, to support your

telecommunications provider’s switching

capability. This will, of course increase your

overall operational costs since you will need at

least two fax servers capable of handling 100%

of your traffic.

Installing a New Board - Because boards and

drivers change, you may have to update the fax

server software. If you are required to do this,

it may render the fax server software

incompatible with the Application Programing

Interface (API) that your ERP system uses to

communicate.

Total Fax Board Failure - If the fax board fails

you may find yourself in a very difficult

situation. Fax board compatibility may not be

the same from one generation of cards to the

next; simply inserting a new fax card into an

old server probably will not work. So even if

you can get a new board the next day, you still

need to install and test it.
