We are planning to build a Disaster Recovery environment for Production Environment. Technology used: SharePoint Foundation2010, MSBI and MS Sql Server 2008 Standard.
Current Production Server has SQL Server2008 standard (Core license) installed in it.
Do we need separate MS SQL Server 2008 licence for Disaster Recovery (DR) Server in order to keep the DR and Production database running in both the environments simultaneously.
We don't want to keep database down in DR environment as this impacts our code deployment process.
Each time code gets deployed to Production, we will have to follow few extra steps to keep DR and Production in sync.
Example:
1. Bring up the MS SQL Server database in DR environment
2. Deploy the solution and bring down the DR database.
Please suggest...
