Hi, Can you please let me know how we can replicate the disks on Realtime ? so, in case anything happens to the VM I would attached the replicated disk and spin up the VM. is it possible with Azure ?

what would be the best practise for a WVD failover? To create a hostpool with 2 regions or something like that in a powerbook. If no heartbeat set xy...

@AzureAcademy

DR with WVD is done in 2 ways. 1. Use Azure Site Recovery to replicate the VMs to another region...normally done with Personal Desktops 2. build another hostpool in another region and power off the VMs as a hot standby Generally DR is considered a manual event because we don't want to fail over to another region and cause down time unless a person have chosen to do so...and for WVD this is a question that is larger than 1 VM not being accessible.

Hi Dean, a great video. I have come across the issue of having two Vnets with overlapping IP addresses as the second Vnet was created with the same address space. I would need to peer the second vnet to allow on prem access, how would I configure this? Thanks

@AzureAcademy

Жыл бұрын

A vnet can have any ip range you want, even an identical range however if they vnet is going to be peered to another vnet the ranges must be unique. So if your original vnet and your DR vnet have the same range and you want the DR vnet to connect to on prem you need to drop the original vnet gateway connection and make a new one in DR. It is situations like this why people have transit or hub vnets that connect to on prem and then spokes that connect to the hub

If the source VM has a NFS mounted volume from Azure File Share Premium, will ASR replicate the data from that mounted Volume to the DR region on a Managed Disc ?

When the VM comes online through ASR you won’t have to do anything, unless you are locking down NFS network

Is it safe to configure disaster recovery directly in a production environment? Does testing or replication affect in any way the production virtual machine? Thanks for the video!

There is no impact to production VMs. The replication of storage is a function outside of the VM.

@@daanand86 normal pricing of ASR is $25.00 per VM and the cost of your storage...however large your disks are. Those costs are fixed... So I think you are asking if the storage cost can be controlled. Yes it can...kind of. When you protect your VM you choose the kind of disk that you will create...the lowest cost is standard HDD...but this is also the lowest performance. So I suggest that you select the lowest cost tier of disks that you can, depending on your DR requirements. In DR what is more important? Getting everything running, or running as fast as Production was?

Question, does Test failover provide an accurate representation of how a real Failover would go? Is there a reason to do the real Failover in a DR Test, for more accurate results? Would you be able to test applications on these Test VMs?

@AzureAcademy

4 жыл бұрын

Test failover are normally done on test networks the benefit is to not impact production. The purpose is to validate the fail over process for the. VM or tiered application Once the failover happened the VMs are completely running in Azure on the test network. You can log in and do any tests you want

@@AzureAcademy Thank you, what I found out is that Test Failover tests the solution but not the connectivity. So basically you can do a Test Failover before a IT Service Continuity Exercise, for example, but for the actual exercise, you need to perform the actual failover - at least for the criteria that we have,

Correct Dopex89, ASR fail over test will get the VMs tested, but this does not test connectivity to your other resources You do need to test those things separately

Should the IP address space of target VNET (from a different subscription) be same as the source VNET , to avoid re-configuring the IP once the VM is recovered on the target site?

@AzureAcademy

2 жыл бұрын

yes and no. If you are just testing is can be ok...but the normal recommendation is to keep all networks in different address spaces so you can route traffic to all of them when you need to. So it can work, but you normally should not do it

depends how you normally connect. If you have a VPN / Express Route in your primary region but you don't in your DR region...then you don't have direct connectivity to the DR VM. You might need to add a temporary public IP address...and Network security group to RDP to the VM

Ah... One thing to be VERY clear about is that DR is not and will not be automatic. BC & DR events are dictated by the business and then the tech makes it happen. Azure DOES NOT automate DR to happen. You have to click the button to start the failover process. Now once you start the failover...then it can be automated from there.
