Question : Windows Clustering Vs 3rd Party App for Relocation of Servers.

Hi Guys,

Just trying to get an opiion on this.

I need to relocate my servers and thinking of setting up new servers in the new location and finding a way of getting everything to replicate over the WAN to the new so the the old location location can be shut down - 0 downtime. I have 1 physical server running exchange and another two with ESXi ruinning 6 virtual machines.

Is this possible with MS clustering? Advantages/Disadvantages between MS and 3rd Apps?
I am planning on using DoubleTake Move

Any ideas?

ciss is not a real scsi controller and does not support extra logical unit of a device - a changer, if you can configure library to provide changer as separate device you can make it work with your controller.
