In this post we are going to see below mentioned topics for Lync 2013 High Availability and Disaster Recovery.

• Configuring Database Mirroring and Backup Pool Registrars 
• Experiencing SQL Server Failure or Outage 
• Experiencing a Pool Failure or Outage 
• Experiencing a Front End Server Failure 

Before initiating the steps we must consider few important key notes for performing Disaster Recovery.

•  To perform the Disaster Recovery or High Availability we must have minimum 3 SQL Servers with Enterprise Edition.
• Confirm all these SQL Servers have the same version.
• Create SQL Mirroring before starting the Disaster Test. Refer the following URL to understand how to create SQL Mirroring http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9v0OW2WfoIo

In this Lab, I have configured SQL Mirroring (SQL03). This is an newly added feature for Lync 2013 for High Availability and Disaster Recovery.
