Step 7 | If you have a SQL Server AG or cluster, you must configure the mappings for distributed application restores. | Configure these mappings in the Distributed Application Restore Mapping host property on the master server. See Configuring mappings for restores of a distributed application, cluster, or virtual machine . |
|
Step 8 | If you have a SQL Server AG or cluster, you must review the auto-discovered mappings for the hosts in your environment. |
