May 22, 2012MSSQL Instance/Database Switching
I'm looking at providing HA for a few MSSQL 2008 databases. There will be two servers housing ~3 DB. The DBs will be in mirroring mode, info can be found here.
I have been using the Oracle 11g deployment guide as a basis. I have the nodes setup and three pools setup with different monitors for each of different the DBs running on the server, but I'm stuck at the virtual service. The Oracle deployment has an iRule for switching service names to different pools.
Is there a similar rule for MSSQL? I've been searching, but so far come up with nothing. Or is there a more preferred method for MSSQL?
Thanks!

Add www.xyz.com and xyz.com as aliases to your www.iws.xyz.com wideIP.

Hello Brad, Thanks for your reply. I dont think we can have xyz.com as an alias since its a top level URL.
- Top level domains can be added as aliases. An alias in a wide IP is similar to a CNAME in BIND, but they aren't the same. Wide IPs can respond for top level domains.
