Hyper-V Host Running Exchange VMs in DAG - Mailbox & Logs Databases attached using ISCSI with Active/Passive Databases on Both
Hello Acronis,
Does your software support such infastructure? If so, can you please tell me the best practice to use your software? I am also open to any other recommednations from existing customers with similar setup.
Thank you all in advance!

Thanks for your prompt reply Vasily.
Considering that we have active and passive databases devided equally between the Exchange VM's DAG - Would you recommend running an entire machine backup or just database and logs with application protection enabled. Not sure how the DAG will behave if i run sepetrate application awareness backups for the VMs.

Hi Ahmed,
It makes sense to run an application-aware single-pass backup which will include entire machine data inside with ability to recover Exchange items from it. See this documentation topic - you should treat your VM as "physical machine", e.g. install Agent for Windows + Agent for Exchange inside it and enable application protection while backing up entire machine. The same approach can be used on both nodes of the DAG cluster.
Thank you.

Thank you Vasily. Will I be able to backup to the Azure as well?
