Automate Disaster Recovery.

Question

Can anyone please help me with setting up automated Azure to Azure ( different regions) disaster recover fail over and then fail back?

So, far I have created two different resource groups and Vnets in different regions.

Also, the replication has been enabled in the 'Recovery service faults' via the portal and it looks healthy.

Answer 1

You can use Azure PowerShell to set up disaster recovery for Azure virtual machines. Instructions can be found here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/site-recovery/azure-to-azure-powershell

To answer your other questions about AtoA disaster recovery failover and failback, I suggest referring to this link - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/site-recovery/azure-to-azure-common-questions#is-failover-automatic 

Snipper from the above link:

Is failover automatic?

Failover isn't automatic. You start failovers with a single click in the portal, or you can use PowerShell to trigger a failover.

HTH

Let me know if you've further questions in this regards and we shall continue the conversation.
