A company has a remote replication session for a VMware datastore. The administrator needs to test the disaster recovery plan by performing a failover and then a failback. The administrator wants to minimize the risk of data loss during the test. What is the correct approach?

Perform a planned failover, test the VMs, then perform a planned failback.

Pause the replication session, perform a failover, test the VMs, then resume the session.

Create a test copy of the destination volume, test the VMs, then delete the test copy.

Perform an unplanned failover, test the VMs, then perform an unplanned failback.

Which action should you take first when a replication session is in an error state?

Check the session status and error messages in PowerStore Manager

Delete the session and recreate it

What is the purpose of a failback operation?

To delete the replication session

To test the replication session

To pause replication temporarily

To return production to the original source after a failover

An administrator wants to test the disaster recovery readiness of a VMware datastore replication session. The administrator needs to verify that the replicated data is usable without affecting the production source. What is the correct action?

Pause the replication session and mount the destination volume directly.

Create a test copy of the destination volume and mount it to an ESXi host.

Create a snapshot of the source volume and mount it to an ESXi host.

Perform a failover to the destination and then failback.

A storage administrator notices that a remote replication session for a critical VMware datastore is in a 'Paused' state. The administrator needs to resume replication to ensure the destination is up-to-date. What is the first step the administrator should take?

Delete the replication session and recreate it.

Perform a failover to the destination to make it the active volume.

Immediately resume the replication session to minimize data loss.

Check the replication session's health and status to understand why it was paused.
