Question

An administrator is managing two clusters registered to two different Prism Central instances. After configuring a Protection Policy for synchronous replication and verifying data replication, the administrator would like to create a new Recovery Plan with automatic failover. However, the administrator finds that the Recovery Plan workflow offers only manual failure execution mode. What configuration must be fixed to execute the failover automatically?

Options

  • AVerify protected VM are not already part of another Recovery Plan.
  • BModify firewall to open 2030, 2036, 2073, 2090 ports on every local and remote CVM5.
  • CProtection Policy must also have a local schedule.
  • DPrimary Location and Recovery Location must be in the same AZ.

Explanation

In Nutanix Leap (the DR orchestration framework), automatic failover capability in Recovery Plans requires that the Primary Location and Recovery Location are configured within the same paired Availability Zone (AZ) setup. When two clusters are registered to two completely separate, independent Prism Central instances without proper AZ pairing or when they are treated as isolated AZs, the system can only offer manual failover because it cannot automatically detect and respond to site failures across independently managed environments. Verifying protected VMs are not in another Recovery Plan (A) addresses conflicts but not failover mode. Firewall ports (B) affect replication connectivity. A local schedule in the Protection Policy (C) is not required for automatic failover mode.
