    Dear Friends,

    I setup a test run case on 2-Node AlwaysON , on developer edition.The issue is I want to add another replica to this but the connection doesn't happen in the first page of the Add Replica wizard (please refer attached file for the error). I can though connect to both the instances well from outside with the same login. Or does the number of replicas are limited to 2 on Developer edition.Kindly advise.Thanks in advance.

     

    Best Regards

    Mohammed Arshad

    What is the error you receive when you click the "connect" button?

    Developer does not have a 2 node limitation.

    Hi Michael,

    It throws the standard error "  Network Related or Instance-specific...."... Actually, as I noticed, the connection from outside 'Add Replica" isn't also possible with the <'Servername'>\'<InstanceName>' notation , but works well with  '<IP>\<InstanceName>' notation which I am ok with but the issue now is , how do I make 'Add Replica' to go by or allow me to provide the '<IP>\<InstanceName>'  instead of <'Servername'>\'<InstanceName>' .Thanks for any suggestions.

    Regards..Arshad

    Have you tried using T-SQL and not the wizard?

     

    ALTER AVAILABILITY GROUP MyAG ADD REPLICA ON 'COMPUTER04'

    WITH (

    ENDPOINT_URL = 'TCP://COMPUTER04.Adventure-Works.com:5022',

    AVAILABILITY_MODE = ASYNCHRONOUS_COMMIT,

    FAILOVER_MODE = MANUAL

    );

    Got it resolved. The Infra team helped change the name resolution settings and replaced the 'servername.domainname' notation with only the servername.Thank you.
