Dell Replay Manager Version 7.8 Administrator’s Guide
Protect Microsoft SQL Server 2016, Microsoft SQL Server 2014 or Microsoft SQL Server 2012 AlwaysOn Availability Groups
Replay Manager can be used to back up databases that belong to an AlwaysOn Availability Group. However, a database cannot be restored while it is part of an Availability Group. Just as with native Microsoft SQL Server restores, a database must be removed from the Availability Group before it can be restored with Replay Manager.
Steps
- Remove the database from the Availability Group.
- Restore the database using Replay Manager.
- Remove any existing replica databases.
- Add the database back into the Availability Group.
- Start data synchronization to the replica databases, if not done when the database was added back into the Availability Group.
