Hi,
In my environment I have 2 Hyper V Hosts, with 2 VM's on Hyper V1, we have configured replication to Hyp V2 Server. Currently both Servers from V1 are replicated to V2 with replication health showing as normal.
We have checked and tested the failover and confirmed as successful. The planned failover is working fine for the Server. But when I try to perform the 'reverse replication direction after failover' its getting failed at the step 'reverse replication
direction'.
As a troubleshooting method we performed the below:
-The replication and planned failover is working fine
-Changed the SPN in AD under machine attributes, so as to communicate with Hyper V hosts
-Confirmed proper communications/ping as available
-Confirmed the port 80 as opened on both Hyper V hosts
-Port 443 currently closed (do we need to open?)
-Modified the hosts file and added the information of both Hyper V hosts on both Servers
-We have also turned off the Firewall on both Hyper V host Servers and tried the same but still the issue persists
Our previous scenario was like the below:
Initially both Hyper V Host Servers were in workgroup and we faced similar issue while configuring replication.
Hence we have added the same to our domain that is domain.local. Also checked and confirmed that "Primary DNS suffix of this computer" check box as checked.
A quick response is much appreciated, Thank you !!!!!!
