Folks, I have an SCR Site Resilliency scenario and i made the failover successfully on the target but when replicating back the event log keeps telling me it can't find the shared folder. i found that SCR can't do an incremental replication. but in case of the full reseed it works perfectly so what could i do if i have 700 GB DB and a 2 mb/s bandwidth, please advice Best Regards Hesham Mousa Infrastructure Consultant
Well I would suggest that the SCR target only be used under a DR scenario if it hangs off a 2mbs link, not a general flick the swicth HA option, so you wouldn't want to replicate back to the failed site?

But i must replicate back to the failed site as i will change my datacenter location and i need a maximum of 2 hrs down time and SCR don't allow me to replicate back "Hesham Mousa" wrote in message news:6C331500-CD50-41AD-A226-C5EFE8739F30@microsoft.com... > Folks, > I have an SCR Site Resilliency scenario and i made the failover > successfully on the target > but when replicating back the event log keeps telling me it can't find the > shared folder. > i found that SCR can't do an incremental replication. but in case of the > full reseed it works perfectly > so what could i do if i have 700 GB DB and a 2 mb/s bandwidth, > > please advice > > Best Regards > Hesham Mousa > Infrastructure Consultant

2 hours, 700GB, 2mbs link; just doesn't go. 2mbs = 900MB/hour=8 hours, somethings gotta give..SLA, link upgrade etc "Hesham Mousa" wrote: > But i must replicate back to the failed site as i will change my datacenter > location and i need a maximum of 2 hrs down time and SCR don't allow me to > replicate back > > "JPF" wrote in message > news:87141D44-5424-486C-86CA-9B2B2657FAB7@microsoft.com... > > Well I would suggest that the SCR target only be used under a DR scenario > > if > > it hangs off a 2mbs link, not a general flick the swicth HA option, so you > > wouldn't want to replicate back to the failed site? > > > > > > > > "Hesham Mousa" wrote: > > > >> Folks, > >> I have an SCR Site Resilliency scenario and i made the failover > >> successfully on the target > >> but when replicating back the event log keeps telling me it can't find > >> the > >> shared folder. > >> i found that SCR can't do an incremental replication. but in case of the > >> full reseed it works perfectly > >> so what could i do if i have 700 GB DB and a 2 mb/s bandwidth, > >> > >> please advice > >> > >> Best Regards > >> Hesham Mousa > >> Infrastructure Consultant > >> >
You could use a third-party tool for replication back to the production box and then failback, but there would be some expense involved in that process. Most of the tools on the market can do a differential sync, but they're not cheap.
