General Availability of SQL FCI and AG Features SQL Server Enabled by Azure Arc
We have good news. Two business continuity features for SQL Server enabled by Azure Arc are now generally available:
- View Failover Cluster Instance
- Manage Availability Group
With Azure Arc, these features help you manage high availability and disaster recovery for SQL Server workloads across on-premises, hybrid and multi- cloud environment. You can now manage them all from the comfort and convenience of the Azure portal.
- View Failover Cluster Instance lets you see your failover cluster instances. You can find out things like:
- Which nodes are active or passive
- What is the network name
- What databases they have
- This capability mirrors the convenience of managing standalone instances of SQL Server enabled by Azure Arc.
- To learn more, read Viewing Always On Failover Cluster Instances in Azure Arc.
- Manage Availability Group lets you check and control your availability groups. You can do things like:
- See what availability groups you have
- See their status and health
- Failover to another node, if needed
- To learn more, read Inventory and Status of Always On Availability Groups.
We want to hear your feedback about these features. Thank you for choosing Azure Arc-enabled SQL Server for your on-premises, hybrid and multi-cloud solutions.
