I’m going to use Hyper-V replica for disaster recovery of production environment. The system includes Navision on MS SQL 2008 R2 for around 35 users which I’m going to move to Virtual Machine (with separate SAS HDD volumes dedicated for SQL DB and Logs).
Just wander if anybody could help me find answer for following questions:
- I know, Hyper- v replica requires some space for logs, do they have to be on the same volume as drive or could they be on completely different volume?
- Can I use all space available on those hard drives for VHD file or do I need to leave some free space?
- What will be replication performance impact on SQL server?
- Do I have to use recovery point to make sure my SQL database is consistent? I read somewhere, recovery point has significant impact on server.
- Any other advice about configuration?
Thank you
