Question about replicas - disatser recovery testing

Post by MrBigFeathers »

I had a quick question. We are going to be testing our disaster recovery for a couple servers. They are currently being replicated with Veeam. If we shut down the two production servers does anything need to be done other than bringing the two replicas up? Do I have to do anything in the Veeam console? Or is it as simple as powering on the replicas and using them as if they were the production machines?

Ok, I see that I want to go through the Restore wizard within Veeam. When I want to fail back to the production machine would I select "undo previously performed failover"?

Hello Jason,

Yes, that's correct. You should choose "Undo previously performed failover" option to fail back to your production VM. Also please have a look at similar threads for more information: Data LOSS - Undo Failover and What to do after a "disaster"

Thank you!
