SIOS Protection Suite Microsoft SQL Server Recovery Kit Introduction

The SIOS Protection Suite Microsoft SQL Server Recovery Kit software lets you tie the data integrity of Microsoft SQL-based databases to the increased availability provided by SIOS Protection Suite for Windows.

The LifeKeeper GUI allows you to easily create a SQL resource hierarchy. SIOS Protection Suite can then protect all of the disk resources used by the SQL Server instance, as well as the IP socket resources used to access the database.

*Important Note: This kit is incompatible with the following SQL features: SQL Replication (Snapshot, Merge and Transactional), SQL Log Shipping, SQL Database Mirroring and SQL Server AlwaysOn Availability Groups.

*According to Microsoft, SQL Server failover cluster instance (FCI) requires the cluster nodes to be domain joined. Due to this restriction SIOS Protection Suite for Windows cannot be used to protect Microsoft SQL Server Failover Cluster Instances in a workgroup environment.
