Print Server failover
I have a VMware environment running Windows 2008 and 2008 R2 servers. I have had just a single print server running and recently the system was corrupted and printing stopped. I am wondering if there is a way to setup something so that if a print server goes down, then another picks it up. Is there a way other than clustering?

Good info "za" :)
I still like Veeam though...although it does have a cost associated with it. But, you just create a replica job and forget it, until the time comes where you need to power on the replica VM.

Thanks guys. They DNS solution is just what I am looking for, but also appreciate the Veeam option. Maybe that will come in handy one day.
