Hi All,
Purpose: Customer wants to manage all policies centrally where as respective users will use their owl location TMG server as proxy.
For this I have taken 3 server machine with below details.
Setup:
AD Site 1: SRVEMS1 (TMG Enterprise edition, EMS Array created)
AD Site 1: SRVTMG1 (TMG Standard edition, Added in EMS array 'TMGARRAY1')
AD Site 2: SRVTMG2 (TMG Standard edition, need to add in EMS array 'TMGARRAY1')
I installed the TMG Enterprise management server role on server (SRVEMS1) and create a EMS array 'TMGARRAY1'. Later on I added one TMG standard edition server (SRVTMG1) into TMG Array.
Problem: While I try to add the 2<sup>nd</sup> TMG standard edition server (SRVTMG2) it did not resolve the TMG array name TMGARRAY1 name. At that time it ask to create a new Array.
I do not know what is blocking to add the 2nd TMG to be add in EMS array.
Please help to resolve it.
Many thanks
Thanks in advance NKumar

Hello,
It's normal on an EMS array you could put only one Standard edition, if you want to put both TMG servers upgrade them to the enterprise version : http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee207137.aspx

Thankyou Lione,
If I have option to have only standard edition on both AD sites servers (SRVTMG1 and SRVTMG2), then what is the way to manage policies centrally.
Thanks in advance NKumar

Hi,
Thank you for the post.
If you want to deploy “Disaster Recovery” between two site, we recommend you set up two identical TMG arrays managed by redundant EMS servers at each site.
