What Are Multi-Site Clusters? What Makes Multi-Site Clusters Unique? Why Use a Multi-Site Cluster? Evaluating the Business Need for a Multi-Site Cluster Storage Challenges for Multi-Site Clusters Synchronous / Asynchronous Replication? Network Challenges for Multi-Site Clusters
Choosing the Appropriate Quorum Mode in Multi-Site Clusters Demo: Deploying a Multi-Site Cluster

Advantages over cold standby server in a disaster recovery site: Automatic failover Reduced downtime
Lower complexity
error-prone procedures
available alternatives
replication
Software (file system level) host-based
replication
Application-based replication (such as
Exchange 2007 Cluster Continuous Replication) Can be either synchronous or asynchronous replication Synchronous: No acknowledgement of data changes made in Site A until the data is successfully written to Site B
Asynchronous: Data changes made in Site
Site A

connections
Allows write latencies to impact
failure
Assumes large enough bandwidth to keep
up with data
Does not significantly impact performance
Quorum Mode Node and Disk Majority No Majority: Disk Only Node Majority Node and File Share Majority
Choose when:
Directed by vendor only Directed by vendor only Limited to two sites Three sites are available
Site C
Site A
Site B
Ensure that the business requirements are met by the solution Use a hardware vendor to create a full solution for multi-site clusters Choose the correct quorum mode to properly maintain functionality in the event of failures Choose the correct storage replication solution to meet these needs
