I have a customer who will be moving an existing DCO DR node from one site to another. There existing infrastructure consists of a DCO server with an attached DR node in the same rack. They also have a spare server of the same type which they wish to build as a standalone DCO server, relocate it interstate then have it assume the role of the DR node. They wish to minimize the time that they are without a DR node. They have 2 HA licences FYI...
Questions:-
I would appreciate any thoughts on the best way to "migrate" the DR node interstate.
Regards

After working with the customer today we identified the following error during the DR attachment process:-
The cluster time is 36080 seconds off from our time. Please correct the time.
36080 works out to 10 hours so we established that the server they were attempting to attach as a DR node had its system time out by 10 hours. Once a valid NTP server was configured and both servers times were closely matched, the DR attachment was successful.
Even though these are both standalone DCO servers, the reference to cluster time does not just refer to a DCO clustered environment.
