HP XP7 Replication Manager Application Agent CLI User Guide (TK981-96015, May 2014)

Figure 23 Metafile allocation
Assume that you have a cluster system in which database servers are clustered using Microsoft Cluster
Service or Windows Server Failover Clustering, and one of the cluster servers has failed over to the
other server. In this case, if a metafile has been stored on a volume in the storage system, the primary
volume can be restored from the secondary volume.
HP recommends that you store metafiles in a volume belonging to the resource group of SQL Server
so that, even if the cluster resource of SQL Server fails over, you can use the files by having them fail
over at the same time.
Metafile allocation for cluster configuration of the operation standby type (Active-Passive) is shown
in the figure below.
