Hello,
I have inherited a configuration that I was told was supposed to be completely redundant. When I explained to my boss that it wasn't he went a little loopy and insisted that I reconfigure everything so that there is no single point of failure.
It's 2 identical hosts each VMWare Server2 a "production" virtual machine and a "development" virtual machine. The production virtual machines are different. The host OS is Windows Server 2008 SP2, the VM's are running a proprietary product on a mysql database and Apache web server. I need for the 2 servers to be mirrors of one another in case of a hardware failure.
Is Vmotion an option in this particuar setup? Is there an inexpensive way to configure the redundancy that we need? I've seen Stawind Software's iSCSI High Availablity software but only with MS Hyper-V.
Host1: Host2:
Production1 Production2
Dev1 Dev2
This is probably very simple for some or most of you, any assistance you can offer would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Wes
