What is the purpose of an SRDF failover operation?

To reverse the direction of replication without interrupting I/O

To permanently delete the source data

To switch production access from the source to the target array

To test the replication link without affecting production

A company uses SRDF/A for disaster recovery between two PowerMax arrays. A disaster occurs at the primary site, and the storage administrator needs to make the secondary site the active production site. The administrator also wants to ensure that the secondary site has a consistent image of the data. What should the administrator do first?

Swap the roles of the primary and secondary

Perform a failback to the secondary site

Perform a failover to the secondary site

Suspend replication and then resume it

What is the primary purpose of an SRDF consistency group?

To group devices for performance tuning and load balancing

To provide a single point of management for SRDF pairs

To ensure write-order consistency across multiple devices

To reduce the number of SRDF links needed for replication
