Considerations

• Place Page file on a separate VHDX
• Network QOS for Replica Traffic
• How to send Initial Replica?
• Do I need more than one Replica listener?
• Replica Folder name as GUIDs

QoS Policies

• Use QoS to enable multi-tenancy and avoid
  overprovisioning in you datacenter
• Minimum and Maximum Bandwidth options
• Weight for Minimum Bandwidth allows
  oversubscription
• DCB
