Microsoft SQL Server Witness - Beta (v13.3)
Published by RightScale on Mar 06, 2013Revision: 10
Description
This ServerTemplate is on the Infinity Lineage.
For a description of the Infinity and LTS lineages, see ServerTemplate Release Methodology
This ServerTemplate configures a Microsoft SQL Server Express database server that may be used to add a mirroring witness to a MS SQL Server mirroring pair. The witness is an optional instance of SQL Server that enables the mirror server in a high-safety mode session to recognize whether to initiate an automatic failover. Unlike the two partners, the witness does not serve the database; supporting automatic failover is the only role of the witness.
More information about using mirroring witness can be found at Microsoft Technet
Key Features:
- SQL Server Express (no license required)
- Performs automatic failover of a mirrored pair of SQL Server DBs
- Does NOT store database content locally.
