Dears,
Definitively, Win2008 is not friend of mine...
I have a win2008R2 Cluster made of 2 Win2008R2 nodes.
Cluster is quorum based, Q:\ drive.
I defined 2 "file Server" services, autostart enabled, each service a disk.
A simple cluster, in other words.
For backup resources, I defined
2 clients, 1 for each physical node with Saveset=all,
1 client for the Quorum with saveset=Q:\
The 2 "file server" services aren't yet defined as client
and by the way, not backuped yet.
What I see is during DISASTER_RECOVERY backup of the nodes (saveset =all),
the disks from the 2 file server services are considered as "critical"
volumes and be part of DR backup (OSSR_x savesets) by the nodes
holding the cluster service although the "file backup" of these 2 cluster-disks
is not performed as expected.
Why are these cluster-service hdds be part of DR backups ?
Why are they considered as critical by WSB ?
Bug ? Feature ?
Did I miss something somewhere ?
This cluster will become a big file server cluster with high storage space
Imagine backuping raw disks + file level disks of all disks defined as cluster
resource ?
Thanks
Th
Kind regards - Bien cordialement - Vriendelijke groeten,
