Configuring a high availability or a disaster recovery environment involves a series of tasks such as evaluating the requirements, configuring the storage, installing and configuring VCS, installing and configuring the application, and so on. A configuration workflow table provides high level description of all the required tasks, with links to the topics that describe these tasks in detail.

Separate workflow tables are provided for HA and DR configurations. Use the appropriate workflow table as a guideline to perform the installation and configuration.

Symantec recommends using the Solutions Configuration Center as a guide for installing and configuring SFW HA for Enterprise Vault. For more information, See About the Solutions Configuration Center.

The workflow tables are organized to follow the workflows in the Solutions Configuration Center.

For example, in using the Solutions Configuration Center to set up a site for disaster recovery, you first follow the steps under High Availability (HA) Configuration and then continue with the steps under Disaster Recovery Configuration. Likewise, in this guide, you first refer to the High Availability workflow to set up high availability. You then continue with the disaster recovery workflow.
