Hi,
1.Can we configur SYmantec endpoint protection replication between embbeded and sql databases ?
--> Yes, it's possible.
Endpoint Protection Manager Replication between SEPM and Embedded databases
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH137366
2. what will be the pros and cons of different type of databases ?
--> Embedded database support upton 5000 clients only per SEPM
3. How many SEPM server can connect to single SQL database ?
--> As per best practices it should not be more than five & Symantec strongly recommends that you do not exceed 10
SEP 11.x it SQL can connect upto 50,000 clients per SEPM & 80,000 in SEP 12.1.
we have two sepm servers and one sql database in loadbalacing on one site and we want configure an other SEPM server on DR site. what are yours suggestions to accomplish this requirement.
--> Could you please confirm total number of clients & currently how they are divided with load balancing?

1.Can we configur SYmantec endpoint protection replication between embbeded and sql databases ?
yes, it is possible to run replication
2. what will be the pros and cons of different type of databases ?
just make sure the data is not too much to replicated , as Sybase DB may not peform the same level as that of SQL when managing the huge DB size.
3. How many SEPM server can connect to single SQL database ?
best practices it should not be more than 5
Use the following size guidelines to decide how many sites to install:
Install as few sites as possible, up to a maximum of 20 sites.
Connect up to 10 management servers to a database.
Connect up to 50,000 clients to a management server

The below article suggests definitions are included in the SEPM native backups:
http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH165784
Incidentally, as per your earlier question, it is NOT required to place a GUP and the clients the GUP provides updates for, in the same group. As long as the below requirements are met, the GUP and its clients can be in different groups and even have different policies applied!
Add to this the subnet requirements of the Multiple GUPs option and you're done. As it is not out yet, I cannot confirm if these are also applicable to 12.1RU2, but I can confirm these are correct for 12.1RU1MP1 as I've tested it.
