Process Replica VM
This step performs a number of actions that depend on the plan state:
- Failover — the VM replica will be started from the most recent restore point.
- Undo Failover — you will switch back to the source VM. Changes made to the VM replica will be discarded. The source VM will be powered on.
- Failback — you will fail back from the VM replica to the source VM. Changes made to the VM replica will be synchronized with the source VM. The source VM will be powered on.
