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
