Configuring automated test failover

By configuring automated test failover, you can test your recovery server without performing any manual actions.

To configure automated test failover

1. In the console, go to Disaster recovery > Servers > Recovery servers, and then select the recovery server.

2. Click Edit.

3. On the Automated test failover tab, in the Schedule field, select how often automated test failover should be performed.

   Option	Description
   Monthly	Automated test failover is performed at the beginning of each month.
   Weekly	Automated test failover is performed every week.

4. In Screenshot timeout, change the default value of the maximum time period (in minutes) for the system to try performing automated test failover.

5. If you want to save the Screenshot timeout value as the default and have it populated automatically when you enable automated test failover for the other recovery servers, select Set as default timeout.

6. Click Save.
