Client machines
Witness server
Primaryserver
Standbyserver
PRIMARY SERVERRole:
· StarWatch server. The first-choice SQL database server for StarWatch. Also mirrors any changes to the standby server as they happen.
Operating system:· Windows Server 2003/2008.
Version of SQL Server 2008:· Standard/Enterprise (+ SP1 or
above).Version of SQL Server 2005:
· Standard/Enterprise (+ SP3 or above).
CLIENT MACHINERole:
· For operator usage of StarWatch. It looks to the StarWatch database on the primary server until such time as a database failover occurs, at which point it turns to the StarWatch database on the standby server.
Operating system:· Windows XP (+SP3 or above) or
higher, such as Windows Vista or Windows 7.
· Windows Server 2003/2008.Version of SQL Server 2008/2005:
· Not applicable.
WITNESS SERVERRole:· Server monitoring the health of the primary and
standby servers. Initiates a database failover between the primary and standby servers if required. Note that the witness server does not have StarWatch installed.
Operating system:· Windows XP (+SP3 or above) or higher, such as
Windows Vista or Windows 7.· Windows Server 2003/2008.
Version of SQL Server 2008:· Express (+SP1 or above)· Standard/Enterprise (+ SP1 or above), for which
Windows Server 2003/2008 is requiredVersion of SQL Server 2005:· Express (+SP3 or above).· Standard/Enterprise (+ SP3 or above), for which
Windows Server 2003/2008 is required.
STANDBY SERVERRole:
· StarWatch server hosting the copy of the StarWatch database mirrored from the primary server. In failover situations, it takes over from the primary server as the first-choice SQL database server for StarWatch.
Operating system:· Same as for primary server.
Version of SQL Server 2008/2005:· Same as for primary server.

Slide 23: If picture width is an issue for you (that is, you may occasionally need to crop pictures to make them narrower), then consider what ‘Message Box’ style is in force on your PC.Here, ‘Windows XP style’ (left) is more suitable than ‘Windows Classic Style’ (right) because it has a constant pattern across its width, allowing for seamless cropping:
