The Availability Group Secondary Connection

  • I took this to be a trick question, and picked the wrong end of the trick.

    From the DDL viewpoint I think the authorisation is either nothing or read-only.  This means that from the AG viewpoint a connection to the AG listener can be routed either nothing or read-intent queries to the secondary node. However from the instance name viewpoint a direct connection to the secondary node can issue either none or any form of read query to the DBs in the AG.  But I could be wrong...

  • I don't think it's tricky. The docs show you can allow only read-intent, which is an interesting view. There might be good reasons to not allow any read-only traffic on the secondary, and I thought it was good to know that. Hence the question
