AAD Connect on SQL HA

Hi All,

We are planning to use SQL HA for the AAD Connect tool for active and staging servers. Primary will be configured with a SQL AOA listener name and instance name. Can we use the same instance for staging or do we need to create a separate instance for staging? Can both active and staging use the same DB?

Need your help!

    @shashidhar joliholi Thank you for reaching out to us. As I understand you have query on AAD Connect on SQL HA. As far i know Primary & staging Azure AD Connect servers should use different instance & different DB.

    Having them ( primary & staging AAD Connect) on same instance & same DB doesnt solve the HA purpose.

    Let me know if you have any further questions, feel free to post back.
