This is the static IP address for the load balancer you configured in the Azure portal. Import-Module FailoverClusters. Select No. I do not require support from Microsoft for this cluster, so I do not want to run validation tests.
Click Next, and the Cluster creation process proceeds. Choose No. You will be able to specify multiple IP addresses for the subnets. Each prepared node must be the possible owner of at least one IP address. If each of the IP addresses specified for the subnets are supported on all the prepared nodes, the dependency is set to AND. If each of the IP addresses specified for the subnets are not supported on all the prepared nodes, the dependency is set to OR.
Complete Failover Cluster requires that the underlying Windows Server failover cluster exists. If the Windows Server failover cluster does not exist, Setup gives an error and exits. For more information about how to add nodes to or remove nodes from an existing failover cluster instance, see Add or Remove Nodes in an Always On Failover Cluster Instance Setup.
For more information about remote installation, see Supported Version and Edition Upgrades. Before Installing Failover Clustering. You must have this information to create a new failover cluster instance. To install from a network share, browse to the root folder on the share, and then double-click Setup. For more information about how to install prerequisites, see Before Installing Failover Clustering.
The System Configuration Checker runs a discovery operation on your computer. To continue, Click OK.. The System Configuration Checker verifies the system state of your computer before Setup continues. After the check is complete, select Next to continue. On the Product key page, indicate whether you are installing a free edition of SQL Server, or whether you have a PID key for a production version of the product. On the License Terms page, read the license agreement, and then select the check box to accept the license terms and conditions.
To help improve SQL Server, you can also enable the feature usage option and send reports to Microsoft. Select Next to continue. To end Setup, select Cancel. On the Feature Selection page, select the components for your installation.
A description for each component group appears in the right pane after you select the feature name. You can select any combination of check boxes, but only Database Engine, Analysis Services in tabular mode, and Analysis Services in multidimensional mode support failover clustering.
Other selected components will run as a stand-alone feature without failover capability on the current node that you are running Setup on. You cannot add features to a failover cluster instance after creation. For example, you cannot add the PolyBase feature to an existing failover cluster instance. Make note of what features are needed before beginning the installation of a failover cluster instance. The prerequisites for the selected features are displayed on the right-hand pane.
SQL Server Setup will install the prerequisite that are not already installed during the installation step described later in this procedure. You can specify a custom directory for shared components by using the field at the bottom of this page. To change the installation path for shared components, either update the path in the field provided at the bottom of the dialog box, or select the ellipsis button to browse to an installation directory. The path specified for the shared components must be an absolute path.
The folder must not be compressed or encrypted. Mapped drives are not supported. If you are installing SQL Server on a bit operating system, you will see the following options:. When you select the Database Engine Services feature, both replication and full-text search are selected automatically. If a cluster node or service fails, the services that were hosted on that node can be automatically or manually transferred to another available node in a process known as failover.
Distributed metadata and notifications. WSFC service and hosted application metadata is maintained on each node in the cluster. This metadata includes WSFC configuration and status in addition to hosted application settings. Changes to a node's metadata or status are automatically propagated to the other nodes in the WSFC. Resource management. Individual nodes in the WSFC may provide physical resources such as direct-attached storage, network interfaces, and access to shared disk storage.
Hosted applications register themselves as a cluster resource, and may configure startup and health dependencies upon other resources. Health monitoring. Inter-node and primary node health detection is accomplished through a combination of heartbeat-style network communications and resource monitoring. Failover coordination. Each resource is configured to be hosted on a primary node, and each can be automatically or manually transferred to one or more secondary nodes.
A health-based failover policy controls automatic transfer of resource ownership between nodes. Nodes and hosted applications are notified when failover occurs so that they may react appropriately. The Always On features provide integrated, flexible solutions that increase application availability, provide better returns on hardware investments, and simplify high availability deployment and management. Related resources are combined into a role , which can be made dependent upon other WSFC cluster resources.
This type of instance depends on resources for storage and virtual network name. The virtual network name resource depends on one or more virtual IP addresses, each in a different subnet. In the event of a failover, the WSFC service transfers ownership of instance's resources to a designated failover node. The SQL Server instance is then re-started on the failover node, and databases are recovered as usual. At any given moment, only a single node in the cluster can host the FCI and underlying resources.
The shared disk storage volumes must be available to all potential failover nodes in the WSFC cluster. An availability group consists of a primary availability replica and one to four secondary replicas that are maintained through SQL Server log-based data movement for data protection without the need for shared storage.
This means that FCIs and standalone nodes should not be coupled together within an availability group if automatic failover is an important component your high availability solution. However, this coupling can be made for your disaster recovery solution. Reliable failovers through periodic and detailed health detection using dedicated and persisted connections. In a production environment, we recommend that you use static IP addresses in conjunction the virtual IP address of a Failover Cluster Instance.
We recommend against using DHCP in a production environment. The resources owned by this node include:. At any time, only the resource group owner and no other node in the FCI is running its respective SQL Server services in the resource group. When a failover occurs, whether it be an automatic failover or a planned failover, the following sequence of events happens:. Unless a hardware or system failure occurs, all dirty pages in the buffer cache are written to disk. Client application connection requests are automatically directed to the new active node using the same virtual network name VNN.
Manual intervention is then required in this unplanned failover scenario to reestablish quorum in the remaining available nodes in order to bring the WSFC cluster and FCI back online. Depending on when your SQL Server instance last performed a checkpoint operation, there can be a substantial number of dirty pages in the buffer cache. Consequently, failovers last as long as it takes to write the remaining dirty pages to disk, which can lead to long and unpredictable failover time.
While this does consume additional resources under regular workload, it makes the failover time more predictable as well as more configurable.
