# SQL Server Failover Cluster Instance and ActiveDR
4+
5+
**Files:**
6+
- ActiveDR-FCI-Testing.ps1
7+
8+
9+
**Scenario:**
10+
11+
Testing failover of a SQL Server Failover Clustered Instance with nodes hosted on two separate FlashArrays.
12+
13+
14+
**Prerequisites:**
15+
1. Windows Cluster needs to be created, with four nodes...two on different FlashArrays
16+
2. ActiveDR pod needs to be configured to replicate between the arrays
17+
3. Volumes of the cluster hosting SQL Server databases (User and System) need to be added to the pod
18+
19+
20+
**Recording**
21+
A recording of this demo is available here: -
22+
https://youtu.be/NgeDeOs-C_Y?si=ggYBpvCjI_xYXv8-
23+
24+
25+
These scripts are meant to be run in chunks. Each Part represents an independent workflow in the greater context of a DR manual failover and manual failback. DO NOT run everything at once!
26+
27+
These examples are provided **AS-IS** and meant to be a building block examples to be adapted to fit an individual organization's infrastructure.
