What happens when the Reprotect and Reverse option is selected as part of Planned Failover?

Question

Options

• AThe Planned Failover is automatically reversed at a point-in-time.
• BThe Source and Destination PowerStore systems swap roles and replication resumes in the
• CThe direction of the replication is reversed before the Planned Failover initiates.

Explanation

Reprotect and Reverse means the two PowerStore systems swap their roles after failover completes - the original destination becomes the new source and begins replicating back to the original source, so replication continues seamlessly in the opposite direction (B).

Why A is wrong: Nothing is "automatically reversed at a point-in-time" - that describes a rollback or snapshot restore, not this option. Planned Failover with Reprotect and Reverse is a forward-moving operation, not a time-based undo.

Why C is wrong: The reversal happens after the failover completes, not before it initiates. The failover runs to completion first, then the roles swap and replication resumes in the new direction.

Memory tip: Think of "Reprotect and Reverse" as a U-turn after you've arrived at your destination - you complete the trip first, then turn around and start protecting the journey back.
