Restore a Backup in a Clustered Environment ------------------------------------------- In a clustered environment, servers can allow for failures and can keep data intact, because when a server fails, an automatic failover occurs. If all services are kept running and data remains accessible, a **backup restore** would only be necessary in very specific scenarios. Restoring a backup in a cluster would only be necessary in the following cases: * Data Corruption (Bad Data) * Losing the whole cluster - requiring a redeploy of new servers
