Choosing the Primary site after a site disaster or network disruption

After a site disaster or network disruption is resolved, you have the following options:

This section shows the procedure for each option. In these examples,seattle is the Primary site and replicates data to the Secondary site london. When seattle goes down (or there is a network disruption), london takes over as the new Primary. After the problem is resolved and seattle is back up, you can elect which site (seattle or london) is the Primary going forward.

Note:

Before you try these procedures, make sure that the AutoResync attribute value is set to 2 to enable the primary-elect feature.
