Which Vault command enables disaster recovery replication on a primary cluster and generates a secondary activation token?

vault operator dr enable primary

What does the replication lag metric indicate in DR replication status?

The time delay between writes on the primary and their replication to the secondary

The time since the last backup was taken

The number of failed login attempts on the primary

The amount of storage used by the secondary cluster

After promoting a DR secondary to primary, what must be updated for clients to continue using Vault?

Client configurations to point to the new primary's address

The root token of the new primary

A Vault operator has configured a DR secondary cluster and wants to verify that it is receiving data from the primary. The operator runs `vault read sys/replication/dr/status` on the secondary. Which field in the output indicates that the secondary is fully synchronized with the primary?

`merkle_root` shows the same value as the primary's `merkle_root`.

`state` shows `stream-wal` and `last_remote_wal` equals `last_wal`.

`mode` shows `secondary` and `cluster_id` matches the primary's cluster ID.

`connection_status` shows `connected` and `last_heartbeat` is within the last minute.
