I mean can the nodes of MS SQL Server failover clustering be geographically separated and besides high availability also provide disaster recovery?

  • If your asking if storage can magically move between different data centers, then no. HADR connects the data centers together, but you may find MSSQL 2019’s partial on-premise storage may help. Whatever your method, it has to be storage that is accessible between two data centers...impossible without some kind of replication (DR or not)

  • One option is SQL Server Multi-Subnet Clustering (SQL Server) but you need double the hardware.

By itself, no: clustering relies on shared storage. A failover cluster with shared storage looks like this:



Failover cluster



All 4 of the components - the 2 servers, the switch, and the shared storage - should be located in the same data center.



Disaster recovery is about maintaining availability even when you lose a data center. That means you need the same infrastructure pictured here, but in yet another data center, with some kind of mechanism keeping the data in sync between those environments.



Options include:



  • Storage replication

  • Always On Availability Groups

  • Log shipping

  • Database mirroring

But all of these are above and beyond plain ol' failover clustering.

            How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

            Image
            Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
