Supported Application and Database Servers

Replication and high availability capabilities are custom-tailored for the following application and database servers, for both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows:

• Microsoft File Server -- protection for virtually any application or data type, including databases, so long as the OS platform and file system are supported.
• Microsoft Exchange Server -- protection for your Exchange servers
• Microsoft SharePoint Server -- protection for your SharePoint servers
• Microsoft SQL Server -- protection for SQL servers, including the BlackBerry Enterprise Server database.
• Microsoft IIS Server -- protection for Internet Information Systems.
• Microsoft Hyper-V -- protection for virtualized environments.
• Microsoft Dynamics CRM -- protection for your Dynamics CRM servers.
• Oracle databases -- protection for Oracle databases.
• VMware vCenter Server -- protection for virtualized environments.
• Arcserve RHA Control Service -- protection for this Arcserve RHA component.
• Full System HA - transfer of an entire computer (physical or virtual) to a virtual machine (Hyper-V, VMware ESX, and Citrix XEN Server).

Note: BlackBerry Enterprise Servers can be protected using Arcserve RHA for Microsoft SQL Server or File Server, depending upon your configuration. For details, see the Arcserve RHA for Windows BlackBerry Enterprise Server Operation Guide.

For an up-to-date list of supported platforms and applications, see the Supported Configurations article on Arcserve.com.

The properties you configure during scenario creation vary depending on the application or database server you are protecting. This Administration Guide provides descriptions of each property; for specific scenario creation instructions, refer to the appropriate Operation Guide.
