Inside onQ Appliance

Each Quorum onQ Appliance is a server class x86‑based computer running on a “bare metal hypervisor” for efficient automated virtualization.

The onQ Appliance typically contains several terabytes of redundant internal disk storage. This internal storage is used to efficiently store deduplicated snapshots of your protected nodes and to host the ready‑to‑run recovery nodes.

onQ is organized as a set of virtual machines. Each onQ Appliance runs several virtual machines (VMs), including one VM that hosts the onQ Manager and multiple, automatically‑maintained VMs that are your ready‑to‑run recovery nodes built from snapshots of your protected nodes.
