SQL Server 2012 AlwaysOn

  • Hi Guys,

    Need your advise here.

    Anyone did such setup with AlwaysOn Avail Group?

    We are looking into using AlwaysOn Avail Group for the purpose of HA.

    Server A: Instance A with (DB1,DB2,DB3,DB4,DB5)

    Server B: Instance B with (DB6,DB7,DB8,DB9,DB10)

    We are trying to implement in such a way that Server A makes use of Server B for redundancy and vice versa.

    thanks

    If I understand it correctly you have 2 servers with 1 instance each?

    For the scenario above you'll likely end up with 2 AlwaysOn groups for the 2 sets of databases.

    Are both nodes on the same site?

  • Hi Perry,

    Yes u are right. Both servers on same site (using vm).

    Appreciate your help!

    Is such setup recommended and possible? Thanks

  • Essentially the databases DB1,DB2,DB3,DB4,DB5 would be primary on Server A in an AlwaysOn group with secondary as Server B

    The databases DB6,DB7,DB8,DB9,DB10 would be Primary on Server B with secondary as Server A.

    This would allow the 2 database groups to be placed where required
