Hello,
Currently busy deploying SAN & MSCS, I'm getting troubles/question on how to handle ArcServe
I can choose to Install Arcserve as a clustered resource, but, according to the doc, the IP & Network name of the cluster itself have to be moved out from the cluster, and even setup to be dependent from external resources. Not something I like. On top of it, I do not need Arcserve to be clustered. It seemed to work fine, however, the SAN option has had some problem between node & cluster names
I can now choose to have Arcserve installed on both node, then I can access each node, but of course can't see the Cluster itself (and its share disks) from the ArcServe Gui. As it's not possible to know which node will own the ressource at backup time, I will not have a good rate of error free backup
I can eventually use, from the cluster nodes, the backup through the share, but I'm not sure this would be the best.
Any experience of you guys about installing Arcserve + SAN option on a MSCS will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
