1
00:00:00,570 --> 00:00:06,190
So we're going to create a lab to practice the topics that we're going to be covering and as Mike Sharp

2
00:00:06,190 --> 00:00:09,810
Escarole Server 2019 failover cluster training.

3
00:00:11,590 --> 00:00:16,930
The lab is going to consist of virtual computers, so you won't have to invest in a machine room.

4
00:00:19,970 --> 00:00:25,670
So in other words, it's going to work in a virtual network, so this way you'll be able to practice

5
00:00:25,670 --> 00:00:29,980
as much as you want to and fail as much as you want to as well.

6
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:33,120
Without causing anybody any harm.

7
00:00:33,470 --> 00:00:38,850
So if you want to, you can use this lab environment for different trainings in the future.

8
00:00:39,110 --> 00:00:40,910
It really will be that useful.

9
00:00:42,890 --> 00:00:49,820
So for the lab setup, first of all, we will install virtualization software called Oracle Virtual

10
00:00:49,820 --> 00:00:55,850
Box, then we will install three Windows Server 2019 data center.

11
00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,430
We will install active directory on one of the virtual servers.

12
00:01:02,290 --> 00:01:09,100
So to install to ask you all servers, we will install a Windows Server 2019 server and connect to each

13
00:01:09,100 --> 00:01:10,930
other as a cluster.

14
00:01:12,730 --> 00:01:13,940
Now, this is important.

15
00:01:14,650 --> 00:01:23,500
There will be two Ethernet cards in each of our virtual servers where we're going to be installing escarole

16
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:31,480
server, one of these either NAT cards will be used for the cluster and the other will be used for communication

17
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:32,640
with the outside world.

18
00:01:33,500 --> 00:01:41,600
Right, so the next step, we will install Microsoft Escarole Server 2019 on two servers and set them

19
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:42,800
up as a cluster.

20
00:01:44,260 --> 00:01:50,310
Then in the last stage, we will install Escorial Server Management Studio to perform Microsoft Escarole

21
00:01:50,310 --> 00:01:55,110
Server 2019 database operations on these two servers.

22
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:01,260
All right, so then after the installation, the general drawing of the lab will be as follows.

23
00:02:03,740 --> 00:02:10,460
But first, I do want to mention that virtualization software uses the resources of the host computer,

24
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:11,060
right.

25
00:02:11,390 --> 00:02:18,110
So for this reason, it is recommended that the host computer on which you will install your lab has

26
00:02:18,110 --> 00:02:20,180
at least the following features.

27
00:02:21,030 --> 00:02:25,630
Got to be a four core CPU, at least eight gigabytes of RAM.

28
00:02:25,640 --> 00:02:27,440
So we recommend even 16.

29
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,520
250 gigs of free hard disk space.

30
00:02:33,990 --> 00:02:38,200
And a video card that gives you at least a gigabyte of RAM.

31
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:39,960
So let's get started.

32
00:02:39,990 --> 00:02:41,270
Why are you taking so long?
