If your source is a cluster, you need to create a duplicate replication set on each of the other

nodes in the cluster. Because the other nodes do not currently own the files, you will not be able

to browse to select the data like you did on the first node. Therefore, you will have to manually

enter the replication set data.

a.

Right-click the replication set created on the owning node and select Properties.

b.

Record the exact drive and directories of each path displayed, including where the rule is

included or excluded and if recursion is applied.

c.

Right-click a non-owning node and select New, Replication Set.

d.

Enter the exact, case-sensitive name for the replication set as specified on the owning node

and press Enter.

e.

Right-click the replication set that you just created and select Properties.

f.

Click Add.

g.

Enter the exact same replication set rules you recorded from the owning node. Be sure and

mark the correct Include, Exclude and Recurse sub-directories options that need to be

applied.

h.

After entering all of the replication set rules, save the replication set. The replication set rules

will be saved even though the non-owning nodes do not have access to the locations right

now. The rules will function properly when the node becomes an owner.

NOTE:

As an alternative to the following manual steps, you can stop the Storage Mirroring

service on the other nodes of the source cluster, copy the file DblTake.db from the

first node to the other nodes, and then restart the Storage Mirroring service.

NOTE:

Each replication set rule on the non-owning nodes must be identical to the

replication set rule on the owning node.
