For maintenance purposes, or for testing the readiness of the secondary host, you may want to migrate the application to the secondary host.
The following are a generic set of tasks that you may need to perform:
Take the RVG resource offline on both the clusters.
Transfer the primary role to the host at the secondary site by using the Migrate option.
Assign drive letters to the volumes on the new primary.
Make sure that these drive letters are the same as those of the original primary.
Bring the RVG resource online on the new secondary.
Bring the application group online on the new primary.
You can now verify that the application functions properly on the new primary with the replicated data. After verifying its functioning, you can revert the roles to what they were originally by repeating the procedure.
