5. Failover from Protected Site to Recovery Site

Site Recovery Manager enables you to ‘Run’ a recovery plan that will result in the actual failover of virtual

machines from the protected site. Similar to test recovery, failover operations are triggered via a button in

the Site Recovery Manager UI on the recovery site. The failover process via Site Recovery Manager is rapid,

repeatable, reliable, manageable and auditable.
