SQL Backup use in a DRP exercise

ChrisAVWood

Hi,

We are about to attempt a DRP to another server. We have SQL Backup on the original server and this will be a complete recovery from the disk image to another server removing the first server from the network and making the recovered server the replacement.

We have used all our SQL Backup licences so will we have a problem trying to restore our databases that are being backed up by SQL Backup? Will SQL Backup believe that it is running on the original server or will I need a temporary licence?

Thanks

Chris

Chris,

Thank you for your forum post, a support call has been raised for this issue with reference F0011568.

Your disaster recovery server will still need to be activated, please could you e-mail your licence key to support@red-gate.com quoting the above reference.

Thanks,
