SQL AlwaysOn for SQL Server 2012 and 2014

Provisioning Services supports the SQL AlwaysOn high availability and disaster recovery solution. Note the following:

• The SQL 2012 native client is required. This is an optional prerequisite in the Provisioning Services server install process.
• Provisioning Services is only aware of and interacts with AlwaysOn through the listener DNS name.
• The database must be part of the pre-made high availability group.
• The listener DNS name and high availability group are part of the procedures to create SQL AlwaysOn. Provisioning Services is not responsible for this.
• The soap/stream services user must be manually configured to have full permission to each SQL server part of the AlwaysOn configuration.
• Provisioning Services is not aware of the individual SQL server/cluster behind SQL AlwaysOn.
• MultiSubnetFailover is not supported.
