I am trying to setup a failover location for MOSS. The current farm is built on 32 bit Windows 2003. The servers ar the failover location are all 64 bit Windows 2008.
Is there any way to make these two environments talk and stay in sync? I have considered a ‘stretched’ farm configuration, but that won’t work unles the bit width of both locations are the same.
The current database server for MOSS is replicated to our failover location using clustering and is visible at both locations.
You can mix 32 bits and 64 bits in the same farm, it’s fully supported.
However, it’s highly recommenced to keep each tiers in the same bit width (for example all WFE 64 bits, application server 32 bits, SQL servers 64 bits).
