Keeping CMS database and FRS backups in synch

58 Views

I am in the process of upgrading to BOE XI R3.1 from CE 10 and am looking at our backup and recover plan.

We are planning on implementing 2 BOE Xi R3.1 servers with a clustered CMS. Our CMS database will be running on a remote SQL Server (2005) farm that will be immediately replicated to our secondary site using SRDF.

The FRS will be local to each BOE XI R3.1 server. We are thinking of immediately replicating the FRS from the primary location to the secondary location using DFS but I worry about the FRS and the CMS possibly being out of synch when we try to restore.

By trying to have backups up to the latest instant am I looking for trouble? if this is manageable, am I going about it the right way?

In our CE 10 deployment we have a CMS database backup at midnight and the FRS is Robocopied at 12:15. I'm just looking to improve upon this.

Thanks
