Alwayson Simulation failure

  • Hello all,

    I have a primary site with a WFC. All data is replicated via alwayson to secondary site where i have one server.

    Data is being replicated asynchronously. The failover/failback process is working as intended.

    What i pretend now is to do a failure simultation where:

    1 - i ll stop all communications between sites

    2 - I ll force the cluster on the secondary site and will force the alwayson failure on it

    3 - Primary site will keep working as usual.

    After tests are done i pretend to simulate the failback where (I am not sure on what’s the best way to do it.)

    1 - Will make sure replication is stopped in both sites

    2 - Will take remove the DR from WFC node votes

    3 - Will force AG failure on DR with (ALTER AVAILABILITY GROUP [AG_SQLTest] FORCE_FAILOVER_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS;)

    4 - will start all communications between sites.

    5 - Start DB replication Again

    This is what i have planned. Although I have some doubts on failback i need help with it.

    Can anyone point me in the right direction?

    Regards,

    Arestas
