Unfortunately I never had time to pilot the active\active scenario.

One thing, I dont think you should consider having the DB's in a different
geogrpahical locations (ie. not the same LAN) as the MOSS devices. You
might find on a busy service the latency is just too great.

Hi,
Has anyone out there any experience getting MOSS running on and Active/
Active SQL cluster?

We're proposing to have hardware loadbalancing on the front end, and
the databases in difference geographical locations.

Requests will be routed based upon which is closest. And there'll
obviously be failover.

Are there any good resources describing this type of topology? Any
hiddent dangers we should be aware of?

Thanks in advance,
John

I too have this as a requirement for a sql cluster with the boxes in
different
geographical locations. We know this is a challenge and not the best
approach but the client is spending enough for us to figure out how to
do it.

I will be deploying and testing soon....I will post any pertinent
information.

If you come across any on your please share it here.

Thanks
