Hello,
I would like to know if the next situation is possible:
I have 1 Hyper-V machine to host about 20 Vm's
I have 1 Server which hosts a generic service (mailserver) in a failover cluster.
Is it possible to add 1 extra server which acts as a failover server for both services?
So when the Hyper-V machine fails, the server takes over this task, and when the mailserver on the primary server fails, the passive server is also able to take this task.
The way I see it, this should not be a problem.
The only thing I have to make sure is that the hyper-v service doesn't failover to the primary mailserver, but to the backup server.
I suppose I have to create a 3node failover cluster.
Or will it fail since the mailserver doesn't have the hyper-v role installed and does not have de iSCSI disk attached for Hyper-V?
