Category2: SnapCenter Plug-in for SQL

Detailed Symptom: SCSQL - Supported configurations

OS SW Version: 9.5P3 CLUSTER-MODE

 

We have three questions that need to be answered regarding the customer's current environment.

 

Customer have 3 SQL Availability group Instances and 1 standalone FCI SQL Instance  simultaneously running on two Node Windows Cluster (clustername COREPRDSQL16 ) .teh above config is supported by Microsoft .

 

 we have successfully configured the 3 SQL Availability group Instances in snapcenter and backups are running fine. However we run into  issues with discovering databases for the 1 standalone FCI SQL Instance  ( COREPRDFCI)

 

 This is the error message we get on the FCI:

Question#1 The account used is the same account as other AG instances with sysadmin rights in corresponding SQL instance DBS.  SVM is the same . So no storage connection issues . Why the SQL DB discovery fails.  Any things to do with static port being used for this SQL instance?

--------------- 

 

Question#2

---------------

 can we run SQL AG and SQL FCI in the same Windows cluster for snapcenter ? Is this a supported configuration for SnapCenter?

 

Question #3  The  two nodes of the windows clusters are in 2 different datacenter locations and each windows nodes has two different IPs in two different subnets  . When we fail over teh SQL resources to the second node, we are unable to enumerate the databases on the second node.  Do we support this configuration?
