This paper highlights the lessons learned from a proof of concept configuration of Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 across two data centers that included database mirroring. The environment runs on Hyper-V, hosted on the 64-bit edition of the Windows Server 2008 Enterprise operating system with Service Pack 1. The mirroring solution that this paper describes is based on the architecture that is described in the following white paper: Using Database Mirroring with Office SharePoint Server and Windows SharePoint Services (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83725).
