Good morning 🙂
Have a new DW implmentation in the works. Several individuals in infrastruture are pushing Veritas VCS (perhaps even a similar product like NSI Doubletake) over MSCS for a large DW project running MSSQL/SSIS/SSAS. Any one have an experience with this? Any one have any feature comparisons and/or supportability issues between the two?
Thanks.

This is something that interests me as well. We use MSCS because that's what we have experience with. Have they considered Polyserve as well?

I'm working for Symantec 🙂 So we are being pushed to "eat our own dog food" if you know what I mean 🙂 My experience has been w/ MSCS exclusively.

Just FYI - here is a quote from a collegue of mine; MS SQL TS for FL -
"VERITAS VCS is NOT supported by Microsoft. Is you have issues; we will do a best attempt to resolve your issue and might even ask you to reproduce the issue on a server that does not have VERITAS. But bottom line....you will have to rely on VERITAS for resolution despite what the vendor says."
Guess I have my answer 🙂
Thanks.

Yeah, that's not surprising. So far as I am aware, they only support MSCS.

i'd stick with mscs. with no supportability from ms if vcs breaks, is something that will keep me up at night.
