We are creating a Microsoft Failover Cluster with Windows Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008. Our storage administrator would like the DBAs to use Data Domain storage (http://www.datadomain.com/) for our disk based backup device. The backups will likely be slower, but we should have lots of disk space to keep the backups online. In essence, he will be creating us a file share on the Data Domain box. I have heard that SQL backups on a cluster do not like to write to a file share. Does anyone have experience with Data Domain in their environment? Is Data Domain storage feasible for use with a cluster?
