Disaster Recovery Considerations for Copy Services

If a disaster or emergency situation at your primary production site causes you to
lose connections to the Copy Services primary server, you must manually switch
control to your recovery site. ESS Web Copy Services code copies tasks
synchronously between the primary and backup servers, but there are some steps
you should consider in planning for disaster recovery, and in implementing
procedures following a disaster.

Choosing this configuration can gain you some efficiency in terms of recovering
from a disaster. Because the primary server is at the recovery site, you do not
have to perform manual recovery steps to switch to a different Web Copy
