Hi All,
I would say that this question has come up before but i had not come across the fourms on a answer. So id ask.
I currenly have a test envoirment setup for EV11. I have a production site and a DR site both site site on Vmware.
My question is that i had conducted a failover to our DR site.
We done the following process.. correct me if i am wrong please.
We powered down site A vms, migrated them using SRM to DR site.
Used DB mirroring from site A SQL01 to DR site SQL05
Applied a DNS change of the new DR site IP address.
Powered back up the VM's.
On the EV mail server i applied an SQL server Client Network Ulity, So the Alias of SQL05 would look like SQL01
Launch EVAC. but i ran into some issues.
When launching EVAC i was unable to find the localhost. I had tried both an Alias name and IP address but it was unable to launch EVAC?
I then checked on the web version to see if i was able to access my own archived data and the site was unavailable.
Both site devices are Windows 20012 R2 x64
SQL server is a 2008 version
any ideas, thought or suggestions would be really appreciated.
Thanks.
Noel
