32 Disaster Recovery with Dell PS Series SANs and VMware vSphere Site Recovery Manager | TR1073
3. There will be one last screen to review before the recovery process begins. Verify the settings and
click Finish.
4. From the recovery site PS Series Group Manager GUI all of the promoted replicas are displayed as
recovery volumes.
5. During the recovery process, you can follow the steps by clicking Recovery Steps.
6. When the recovery process is complete, SRM shows that the recovery is complete in the monitor tab.
If there are any errors during the recovery they are displayed as well. Each of the VMs will show up
on the recovery site registered to the correct recovery datastore and be running according to the plan.
This completes the recovery failover and you can utilize the recovery site as full production according to the
disaster recovery plans for your organization.
Note: For a planned failover or migration it is recommended that a planned downtime occur and the VMs are
powered off before the final replica to ensure that all of the data is in a clean and consistent state on the DR
site.
