Registering SQL Safe allows you to register your SQL Servers participating in availability groups by the replica node name. This is the preferred method for the following reasons:
...
- Each replica node needs to be licensed.
- All nodes in the availability group can have the backup agent installed using the bulk agent installation wizard.
- On nodes where the agent should not perform a backup, SQL Safe automatically checks the backup preference and either performs the operation or skips it.
- Enable jobs on all nodes at all times to prevent a failover event.
