Failback is an SRM term that describes the ability to perform a subsequent disaster recovery or planned migration after a successful recovery and reprotect. The benefit that failback introduced in SRM 5.x is the automated ability to move back and forth between sites with minimal effort. This capability facilitates several use cases including the ability to run production applications at the disaster recovery site, resource balancing, and improved disaster recovery infrastructure ROI.
Note: Before running the Failback recovery plan, run a test recovery of the plan.
