To repair all the nodes in the cluster

1. Rebuild all the computers and restore the SQL databases as follows:

   • Restore the Enterprise Vault Directory database.

     See Procedure 2: Restoring the Enterprise Vault Directory database.

   • Restore the vault store databases.

     See Procedure 3: Restoring the vault store databases.

   • Restore the Monitoring database.

     See Procedure 4: Restoring the Monitoring database.

   • Restore the FSA Reporting database.

     See Procedure 5: Restoring the FSA Reporting database.

2. Recreate the cluster using Microsoft Cluster Administrator. Use the same number of disks, and mount the shared disks with the same drive letters as before.

3. Restore the Indexing and Enterprise Vault store data to disks using the same drive letters as before.

   See Procedure 7: Copy or move the Enterprise Vault data files.

4. Recreate the resource groups, including the prerequisite resources, using the original virtual server names.

5. Install Enterprise Vault on all the nodes in the cluster.

6. Run the Enterprise Vault Configuration wizard on each primary node. Choose to configure a new Enterprise Vault server with cluster support. The wizard detects the existing virtual server name in the Enterprise Vault Directory database's ComputerEntry table, and performs a repair.

   When the repair is complete, a wizard page is displayed, with which you can recreate the Enterprise Vault service resources and Server Instance resource. Do not bring the resources online when given the option to do so.

7. Run the Enterprise Vault Configuration wizard on each failover node. Choose to add the node as a failover node for an existing clustered server.

8. Clear the Directory database entries.

   See Procedure 8: Clearing the directory database entries.

9. Check the Web Access application URL.

   See Procedure 11: Checking the Web Access application settings.

10. Bring the cluster resources online and test that failovers work as planned.
