Hi all,
I have SQL cluster from two nodes on SQL 2012 and WIndows Server 2012 R2. Recently I have configured additional SQL instance on separate server and I have added AlwaysOn AG between clustered instance and separate instance.I want to use DB from secondary replica to run Read-only reports. No AlwaysOn failover needed.
My question is how to perform maintenance of initial SQL cluster after AlwaysOn configuration? When I'm trying to move SQL role to another node AG cluster role fails. After movement is complete AG role becomes online.
What is the best way to maintain cluster nodes to avoid AG role failure?
