Dear Sir/Madam,

I am planning to implement a Lenel OnGuard redundancy solution using Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC).

We have two physical Dell Technologies PowerEdge R750 servers, and Windows Server 2022 will be installed on both physical machines.

As WSFC normally requires Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS), I also need to deploy Domain Controllers. Therefore, I am planning to install Hyper-V on the primary server and create a virtual machine running Windows Server 2022, which will be configured as a Domain Controller. Similarly, I plan to configure another virtual machine on the secondary server as an additional Domain Controller for redundancy.

In addition, for the Lenel OnGuard redundancy setup, I am planning to use Microsoft SQL Server Express for the Lenel OnGuard database.

Kindly review the proposed solution and guide me further regarding best practices and recommendations.
