Has anyone ever put a replication server on SAN disk with
the intention of replication the stable queues and RSSD to a
DR sire via SAN replication
In other words replicate the entire replication server
across the SAN and bring it up whe DR is invoked
would there be any datalose on teh stables queues ?
any issues

If you're talking about SAN level replication, the only data loss would
be anything that isn't written to disk. Since this is replication
server, that's really not a big problem.

i.e puttign a replication server on SAN replication so that
if the to systems go down we can bring them back up , plus
their Replication server in DR,
I no that teh RSSD can be replicated , just curiuos about
whether the stable queues would have an issue with being
replicated via SAL level replication

This is a sincere inquery. We sincerely want to learn what
the benefits are by using storage replication to replicate a
database/transactional replication solution.
To better understand your environment, is it okay if we
ask... Is your replication solution a Warm Standby solution
or a MSA solution (Multiple-Site Availability)? Is the
replication server you want to replicate (via storage
replication) located on your primary site and not your DR
site? I'm assuming the answer is yes. If yes, is there a
reason why your replication server is not located on the DR
site instead?
Sincere question, what are the benefits of replicating the
stable queues and the RSSD using storage replication? If
you switch to your DR site, will you still need to continue
replication (i.e. because your repserver is in your primary
site and is a MSA solution)? Is this correct?
Please forgive us, we know very little about your
environment and sure you have good reason to do so. That's
is why we would like to learn more. Maybe we can learn from
what you are trying to accomplish.
Thank you,
Chuck Chong
