Enterprise Vault Cross Site HA

[benorb]

I'm looking into the best solution for cross site mirroring of EV data and being able to failover to another site and back again. Similar to the way an Exchange DAG works. The Administration Guide and the white paper on HA don't seem to touch on this and so I started exploring other options. 

We don't have SAN to SAN replication and from what I could fine the two options available are Veritas Volume Replicator (http://www.symantec.com/replicator) and EVnearSync (http://www.quadrotech-it.com/products/evnearsync/).

Has anyone implemented a setup like this successfully? And if so, how did you achieve this?

we've successfully done this for several clients using Symantec's HA/DR solution called Storage Foundation. it handles the application HA across all the components of EV and handles the storage replication across disparate storage devices.
