Hi,
I need some guidance here.
I found these:
- SQL Server on Hyper-V Replica is supported provided the EnableWriteOrderPreservationAcrossDisks flag is set.
- Microsoft SQL Server can be supported on a Hyper-V replica so long as high availability of SQL Server is neither enabled nor used, and if SQL Server database and log files are hosted on one VHD file.
- To maintain the SQL Server database integrity, you need to have at least one good copy of “Application-Consistent” snapshot which can be used at Replica Virtual Machine to bring databases online in case of any disaster at primary site. So it is recommended to perform a scheduled backup of SQL Primary Virtual Machine using the backup software of your own and do not just depend on the Hyper-V replication.
I have these questions:
- Do I need to enable “EnableWriteOrderPreservationAcrossDisks” if my database and log files are store in one VHD?
- Do I need to reseed my VMs if I enable “EnableWriteOrderPreservationAcrossDisks” after the replication has occurs?
- How can I check if “EnableWriteOrderPreservationAcrossDisks” is enable?
- If I enable “EnableWriteOrderPreservationAcrossDisks”, can I store my database and log files in different VHDs?
- How can I minimize data loss in my SQL Replica VM?
Thanks in advanced.
