Hi,
Trying to configure Always on AG on Azure IaaS, notice that Azure doesn't support fix IP.
So how do I connect from client and simulate note A will be automatically failover to node B if A is die?
Found this post: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/jj870962.aspx
Try to follow what suggested as connection string.
Data Source=ReplicaServer1;Failover Partner=ReplicaServer2;Initial Catalog=AvailabilityDatabase;
When simulating the die of Node A (by stopping its service), hoping that Node B will automatically failover.
But I notice that the failover partner doesn't take effect as I got this error msg:
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond
Any idea, folks?
