Mirroring

  • Guys,

    We have 3 servers with 2 enterprize edition and 1 developer edition and I need some clarification on database mirroring.

    1) Can I setup a witness server on developer edition (the sever is used for development purpose)

    2) Will this create a licensing issues because we are using developer edition as witness for production server.

    I do recollect reading we need same edition for database mirroring but was not sure if developer edition can act as enterprize edition.

    No guess work please. Response if you are 100% sure (reference will be great).


    Kindest Regards,

    Amit Lohia

  • production is ..production you are not allowed to use the dev edition for it but however you can use any edition for a witness server even the free express edition regardless of the edition you use on the mirroring servers.
