We're setting up our servers for SCR at a remote site, and I'm trying to write a "universal" failover script.
The script is to be ran on the recovery server, and it queries AD looking for any storage groups that have the local machine listed as a standymachine, and then finds the mailbox database that goes with that storage group. I'll extract the necessary information (systemfolderpath,logfolderpath,edbfilepath, and the logfileprefix if I need that to run eseutil) from the mailboxdatabase and storagegroup objects in AD. My question is, in an actual DR, given a server with multiple storage groups, should I single thread the recovery, restoring each SG\Database as I find them, or store the information I need for each one and use that to spawn multiple processes to recover multiple DB's at once? There are currently 2 mailbox servers with 6-7 storage groups each, ranging from 10-100GB, and a total of about 250GB per server. ************************************************************************************************** Note: The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.
