3PAR Replication Adapter 4.x for VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager Implementation Guide

Procedure after Failover
After failover completes from the VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager and the newlyrecovered
site (original protected site) of the storage system is still available, the Remote Copy link can be
resumed with the following steps:
1. Connect to the newly-protected site of the HP 3PAR Storage System and issue the showrcopy
groups groupname command to get the current role of the target Remote Copy volume
group.
2. If the Remote Copy volume group role is Primary, synchronization can be resumed between
the two sites by issuing the startrcopygroup and syncrcopy commands on the
newly-protected site of the HP 3PAR Storage System.
3. If the Remote Copy volume group role is Primary-Rev, synchronization can be resumed between
the two sites by issuing the setrcopygroup recover <groupname> and syncrcopy
commands on the newly-protected site of the HP 3PAR Storage System.
Example of procedure after Failover
1. Check the Remote Copy link status from the newly-protected site (original recovery site) of the
