Hi,

May I know if there is a reference link on how to setup the following media agent configuration below? I tried to check on their site but seems that part is not available

  • Active-Standby Media Agent setup
  • Acvtive-Active Media Agent setup

Hi @Lloyd ,

 

As per my comments on the thread shared by Swati. There is no reason why someone should go with a Active/Passive setup when dealing with MAs.

The CS will balance the load of both MAs and use whatever is available at the time.

Active/Active should be the way to go.
