Figure: Active/passive failover configuration illustrates a typical configuration.
In this example:
System 1 and System 2 are the two Enterprise Vault nodes in the Microsoft server cluster. System 1 is the primary node. System 2 is the failover node.
The SQL server and Microsoft Exchange may also be configured in the cluster: this does not affect Enterprise Vault.
The volumes for the Enterprise Vault services data are configured on shared storage.
The Enterprise Vault virtual server is configured on the primary node, System 1. If System 1 fails, the virtual server's resources fail over to System 2, and the virtual server comes online on System 2.
See the Installing and Configuring manual for more information, and for instructions on how to integrate Enterprise Vault with Microsoft server clusters.
