Hello All;
I work for a Medium sized business and they are currently running a Windows 2003 Server R2 Enterprise edition. The Server is currentky being utilized to host a Web-Based Aplication, run SQL Server 2000 and Terminal Server.
With that in mind they have asked me to setup a fail-safe environment. The idea is if the server goes down due to a hardware/software failure then a second server will take over so there is minimal down time giving them time to fix the failed server.
I have some minor understanding but was not sure where to begin really. Any kind of resource or infomration that specifically focuses on such setup will be greatly appreciated.
Alternative solutions are welcomed!
