- To test a disaster recovery plan, right-click the recovery plan, and click Test, the test was successful. During a failover Test PowerStore provides a writable snapshot for the VM on DR while replication continuous in the background and test VMs are created.
- When running the Recovery Plan in SRM there are two options planned and unplaned failover. On PowerStore the planned failover is doing a sync operations before and after the VMs are stopped on Production to get most recent data for VMs DR. After the failover operations are finished, the PowerStore replication session is in status “Failed over” until the Reprotect operation is ran in SRM.
