Replicating To A Self-Managed Core
to add the target core to which to
replicate.
Performing failover on the target Core
When you encounter a disaster situation in which your source core and associated protected machines
have failed, you can enable failover to switch protection to your identical failover (target) core. The target
core becomes the only core protecting the data in your environment, and you then launch a new agent
to temporarily replace the failed agent.
To perform failover on the target core:
1.
Navigate to the Core Console on the target core, and click the
Replication
tab.
2.
Under
Incoming Replication
, select the source core, and then expand the details under the
individual agent.
3.
On the
Actions
menu for that core, click
Failover
.
The status in this table for this machine changes to
Failover
.
4.
Click the
Machines
tab, and then select the machine that has the associated AppAssure agent with
recovery points.
5.
Export the backup recovery point information on that agent to a virtual machine.
6.
Shut down the machine that has the AppAssure agent.
7.
Start the virtual machine that now includes the exported backup information.
You need to wait for the device driver software to be installed.
8.
Reboot the virtual machine and wait for the agent service to start.
9.
Go back to the Core Console for the target core and verify that the new agent is displayed on the
Machines
tab under
Protected Machines
and on the
Replication
tab under
Incoming Replication
.
10.
Force multiple snapshots, and verify they complete correctly.

11.
You can now proceed with performing failback.

Performing failback
After you repair or replace the failed original source core and protected machines, you need to move the
data from your failed-over machines to restore the source machines.
To perform failback:
1.
Navigate to the Core Console on the target core, and click the
Replication
tab.
2.
Under
Incoming Replication
, select the failover agent and expand the details.
3.
On the
Actions
menu, click
Failback
.
The
Failback Warnings
dialog box opens to describe the steps you need to follow before you click
the
Start Failback
button.
4.
Click
Cancel
.
5.
If the failed-over machine is running Microsoft SQL Server or Microsoft Exchange Server, stop those
services.
6.
In the Core Console for the target core, click the
Tools
tab.
7.
Create an archive of the failed-over agent and output it to disk or a network share location.
8.
After you create the archive, navigate to the Core Console on the newly repaired source core, and
click the
Tools
tab.
