I’d say ‘it depends’. Such an active-active approach makes sense, so yes. I do
see environments that prefer to build exchange servers in pairs, one active and
one passive, all on a virtual host, the passive host is then hosted in a
secondary datacenter. In any case, we prefer to backup the ‘passive’ exchange
databases and not the active ones.
