Abstract
This disclosure relates to a method, article of manufacture, and apparatus of performing backup in a failover cluster. In some embodiments, this includes determining whether a repository is part of a failover cluster, based on a determination that the repository is part of the failover cluster, analyzing a role associated with the repository, upon a determination that the role indicates the repository is a failover candidate within the failover cluster, triggering a secondary backup of the repository, and upon a determination that the role indicates the repository is a primary repository within the failover cluster, triggering a primary backup of the repository.
