Hi,

Good Evening!!!

Looking for some help to setup forest replica in a best way to setup
Disaster Recovery environment. Two approaches have been tried out. Please
find below the scenarios I have tried and the issues are found against my
expectations.


*Approach #1 - Same Cluster*

Currently,  the cluster has 3 hosts in testing environment.  The DB is
split into 3 forests as follows.

   - DB-F1 (host1)
   - DB-F2 (host2)
   - DB-F3 (host3)

*DB-F1's* replica setup in host 2&3


   - DB-F4-F1(host2)
   - DB-F5-F1(host3)



*DB-F2's* replica setup in host 1&3

   -  DB-F6-F2(host1)
   -  DB-F7-F2(host3)


*DB-F3's* replica setup in host 1&2


   - DB-F8-F3(host1)
   - DB-F9-F3(host2)



Later we introduced one more host "4" for Disaster Recovery . All split
forests from host 1,2 & 3 are replicated in host-4 as follows.

DB-F10-F1 - Replica for *DB-F1*
DB-F11-F2 - Replica for *DB-F2*
DB-F12-F3 - Replica for *DB-F3*


*Test scenario:*

  Hosts - 1,2 & 3 are down. Only Host-4 is up. And App service(HTTP) should
work.


*Expectation:*

     Host-4 alone is able to handle the data.

*Issues:*

   -     The fail over his not happened to host-4.
   -     Admin page in Host-4 couldn't be loaded.
   -     HTTP-API in Host-4 doesn't seem working.



*Approach #2 - Two Clusters*

In this way, I have created 2 clusters.

   - Cluster #1 has Host 1,2 &3.
   - Cluster #2 has Host 4


*Test scenario:*

   In cluster #1  all hosts are down

*Expectation:*

     Host-4 in cluster #2 alone is able to handle the data. And App
service(HTTP) should work.

*Issue:*


   -     The fail over is not happened to cluster #2.
   -     HTTP-API in Host-4 doesn't seem working.



Based on my testing both approaches were failed. Looking for the suggestion
to setup the fail over model in correct way.


Thanks
