First we will prepare the Environment for the DAG
I will have my Primary LAN . Will add a Replication LAN ,for my DAG replication for all the nodes which
am planning to add in DAG
1.Primary Network
2.Replication Network
Replication Network
*No Default Gateway
When creating a DAG with Mailbox servers running Windows Server 2012 in an Active Directory
environment with Windows Server 2008 R2 directory servers, you must pre-stage the cluster network
object before adding members to the DAG. For detailed steps, see Pre-Stage the Cluster Network
Object for a Database Availability Group.
See
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd351172.aspx
Lets See How to pre stage a Cluster CNO object.
Open ADUC New Computer Account
Add the First Node Computer account and Give Full Control
Note - Choose Object types to Select Computer Accounts
Specify
* DAG name
* Witness Server Name
* Witness Location
Add Two DAG ips (Static IP for the DAG )
1 for Primary Site
1 for DR site
if you have different subnet or different class of ip on either Sites.
Have Two IP address for the DAG so that DAG resource can be online while failover on either sites
If you have only one Subnet , then you can have only one Ip address for the DAG
Now you can add the other DAG memberwhere it should get added without any issues.
Unlike Exchange 2010 , You need not to have a Create Client Access Array .
Just have a Hardware Load Balancer like CISCO ACE , KEMP , F5 , Have the Exchange Servers in the
farm , Exchange server can start serving requests to the clients .
Its quite simple and easy.
The above diagram is a Good Design for minimum cost . With High Availability Configured
We will need two VIPs to Configure Mail flow and Client access ,
In my Scenario , Have used Cisco ACE to Load balance the Client Access and Mailflow.
