Media Server switching during DR
Hi,
I am running NBU 7.6.1.2 on Windows 2012 and i have a Master server in the DR site and 2 media servers (one in production and one in DR). I am thinking a way to switch the media servers to use for backup during DR.
My environment:
During usual business days my production servers: SvrA, SvrB and SvrC will be backup by my media server MediaSvrA in the production site. The servers SvrA, SvrB and SvrC is using Microsoft Clusters and it will failover to DR when there is a disruption to the services in production environment.
Since the failover is automated the microsoft clusters, is there a configuration that can be done in an automated way so that the failed-over servers will use the media server - MediaSvrB in the DR for backups? If not then the servers will try and will backup to MediaSvrA.
I know that i can manually switch to use MediaSvrB in the policy configuration, but sometime server administrators will not inform backup administrators that the server has failed-over and causing the backup traffic to flow across the WAN.
