<DIV>Hello,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> We had had to work with TAC earlier this year to rebuild a Unity Connection Cluster that had a corrupted data base and the procedure was rebuild the Publisher and to restore the Connection Publisher from DRF and have the Subscriber restore via replication. The feed back I received from TAC was it was not necessary to back up the subscriber. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I think the assumption should be that the Pub has the primary status in the cluster and the Sub the secondary.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Hope this helps,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
