Failover process overview - assure_mimix - 6.0

The failover process involves:

1. Creating a primary context using the procedures described in the Chapter 6 Configuring Replication Groups.

   Note: If you have changed a primary context you must delete the corresponding failover context and recreate the failover context.rtdr -C <Primary Context ID> -F <Failover Context ID> setup

2. Creating a failover context using the rtdr command. This command creates a failover context definition associated with the primary context. Refer to Preparing before a Failover.

3. Validating data integrity of the replica prior to a failover. If necessary, perform a failover restore, as shown in Before performing Failover operations.

4. Performing the following operations after you validate the replica:

• Failover

• Resync

• Failback

Refer to Disaster Recovery Operations for instructions on how to perform these operations.
