Exchange 2003 Cluster and Single Copy Cluster (SCC) for Exchange 2007
Both configurations are failover cluster solutions based on a shared storage. Each of them uses a
single copy of a storage group on storage that is shared between the cluster nodes. Only one cluster
node can access (manage) shared data at a time. The node that is currently managing shared data is
called an active node. Other nodes are called passive or standby.
Cluster Continuous Replication (CCR) for Exchange Server 2007
CCR is a failover cluster solution based on a non-shared storage. It uses two copies (active and
passive) for each storage group. Each copy is hosted on its own node. The copy that is currently in
use is called active, and the node hosting this copy is called the active node. The passive copy is
created and maintained on the passive node using continuous and asynchronous log shipping
technology.
