Data center DR Veeam

Post by johnhk »

Hi ,
If we deploy Veeam Management on Production Site for SQL Always On Group and Replicate to DR Site.
If all Production down.

Can we open the Replicate VM directly without Veeam Management Server? It is support SQL Always On Group?

Hi,

What do you mean by Veeam Management? If this is a Veeam B&R server, then yes, you can initiate the VM replica power-on operation on the DR site manually if the source site is down.

Thanks!

But with this scenario in mind, the best practice is to have Veeam B&R instance responsible for replication in the DR site - to be able to use replica failover/failback functionality.

You can do either that or have a separate Veeam B&R instance for that - please review this thread for the dedicated discussion.
