Hi All,
I would be creating the VSphere 5.5(ESXi 5.5, VCenter 5.5) & VMware SRM cluster in primary DC with the below VMs
Primary DC1 - VM List
--------------------
AD Server
VCenter Server with SQL Server
SRM Server
SQL server 1(Active)
SQL Server 2 (Passive)
App server 1
App server 2
DR Server - VM List
---------------------------------
AD Server
VCenter Server with SQL Server
SRM Server
- I would be installing SQL server on the VCenter server would host the SRM server database on the Primary and DR site VCenter servers
- SQL Server 1 & 2 would be Active / Passive MS SQL Cluster to store the Application data.
I do not want to use SQL Server 2012 AlwaysOn Availability Group due to SQL server Enterprise License cost.
I need to have cost effective solution. Is it correct approach for SQL server design ?
Please let me know the best method.
- Nat
