Networker Server High Availability

Greetings!

I am researching how to best protect our Networker server in the event of a disaster and am running into some brick walls. It would be ideal if Networker was similar to CommVault in the way it mirrors the control center to another server in an active/passive role. However, I'm told there isn't such a thing with Networker. I've done some searching and cannot find anything on my own.

I have developed several alternatives of my own but am open to what others are doing and any ideas that the community may have if they have encountered the same scenario.

We already make a bootstrap and store off site and have equipment ready to rack but would like a high availability solution.

Any ideas?


Thank you everyone in advance!

Hi Jason,
NetWorker had support NW server install on cluster env. You can approch it by this way.

Sometimes we do the following (depends on the rest of the costumers design):

There are two sites:
We make the Networker Server an Virtual Server on VMWare;
VMware uses Site Recovery Manager;
On both sites there is an physical Storage Node, both Storage Nodes have access to the backupdevices.
If one site fails SRM transports the Networker Server to the other site, with all functionality available
