We will be having two NBU master servers

PR:

NBU 7.1    Master Server

OS: SUN Sparc

NBU 7.1Media Server (MSDP)

OS: Windows 2003 R2 x64

DR

NBU 7.1 Master server MSDP

OS: Windows 2003 R2 x64

 

For AIR i presume, Source and target domain must be same (including roles deployed)

Only SLP name must be identical at both NBU domain to implement AIR

As subjected. we do not have media server at DR, MSDP role will be deployed on Master server.

I'm trying to gather relevant docs but couldn't find, Need to know if above scenario works

Source MSDP (Media Server) Target MSDP (Master Server). Will there be any cons with this scenarios

> MSDP role will be deployed on Master server
This means thar you just have configured media server with MSDP on the same host that have been deployed as master server. MSDP is MSDP, and it is no matter whether it is configured on master server host.
