Protection of Windows Failover clusters

Post by rasmusan »

Hi

I have a case where we need to backup both physical and virtual MS Failover Clusters.

Virtual clusters are run on Hyhper-V server 2016 using shared VHDX - Some for file servers and some for SQL servers (FCI - not AlwaysOn)

Physical Cluster is mainly SQL (FCI - not AlwaysOn).

What is best way to protect these? And can I get application consistency on those SQL clusters ?

I guess I need to use VAW in all cases, just not 100% sure if there are any gotchas with the current versions of B&R/VAW ?


Any help and experience is greatly appreciated ;-)

Hello Rasmus.

Veeam B&R cannot process shared vhdx with VM backup job but its possible to protect those clusters with Veeam Agent for Windows managed by Veeam B&R. You can add both virtual and physical clusters to a single agent job with a cluster type. Check this article to learn more. Cheers!
