Configure the
BEMS
 services databases for AlwaysOn availability

Complete this task if you installed
BEMS
 in your environment without specifying the server and database for AlwaysOn during the installation. Complete these steps on each
BEMS
 instance in your environment.
If you manually specify the AlwaysOn Listener and database name in the
BEMS
 dashboard, you must specify the updated server and database information when you perform future upgrades. For instructions on upgrading
BEMS
, see Upgrade
BEMS
.
To install
BEMS
 services connected to a database in AlwaysOn, the instance name must be set to the Listener in the AlwaysOn group, not the cluster name and not the host name of the host server in the cluster.
The databases created for
BEMS
 services need to be added into the AlwaysOn group.
