Always on failover clustering

  • I'm a total rookie at clustering, so of course we will be starting a project requiring this feature soon.
    Are there any books, you tube vids or other resources that can educate me quickly on this topic?
    Any help is much appreciated.   We will be deploying sql server 2016 enterprise on a SAN.  I'm not sure how many nodes.

    Once you've accepted your flaws, no one can use them against you.

  • If you're thinking about AlwaysOn, check out Brent Ozar's video/quiz to see if you're really up for it.  It's under the header Gotchas and Problems with AlwaysOn Availability Groups.
