I have servers SRV_1, SRV_2 and SRV_3
Each server hosts 3 SQL Server 2012 instances I_1, I_2 and I_3
Each instance has 1 DB; DB_1 on I_1, DB_2 on I_2 and DB_3 on I_3
I want to setup AG over the 3 servers but to maximize throughput, I want to setup replica's as follows.
- DB_1: Primary replica on SRV_1 -- secondary sync auto-failover on SRV_2 -- secondary sync man-failover on SRV_3
- DB_2: Primary replica on SRV_2 -- secondary sync auto-failover on SRV_3 -- secondary sync man-failover on SRV_1
- DB_3: Primary replica on SRV_3 -- secondary sync auto-failover on SRV_1 -- secondary sync man-failover on SRV_2
Is this configuration supported? If yes, how should I configure cluster node votes. As guidelines tell me the node with man failover secondary replica's should have no vote, in my configuration, each node has always one node running auto failover replica's. That the reason I fear it is not supported.
Thanks for your help
