Pros

"Not such a good coverage of the most widely used Linux server distributions, so many issues happen while migrating these servers."
"Yes I encountered issues with deployment. The information provided in the guide just stated about 2 or 3 communication ports but even after these ports are enabled there are still issues with the 2 servers communicating via Double-Take."
