Original Protection Job—Specify what to do with the original protection job
if the original source is still online. If the original source is not running, these
options will be discarded because they cannot be performed. These options
are not available if the recovery server is the original source or the repository
server.

Delete the original protection job—The original protection job is
stopped and then deleted.

Stop the original protection job—The original protection job is
stopped but is not deleted. It can be restarted after the recovery.

Leave the original protection job running—The original protection
job is not stopped or deleted. Keep in mind with this option that the data
on the recovery server could become inconsistent or corrupted because
the original source protection job could be transmitting data to the
repository server and that data might get transmitted to the recovery
server, depending on the progress of the recovery process .

13. Click Next to continue.
14. At this point, Storage Mirroring Replicate validates that your recovery server is

compatible to become your original source. Errors are designated by a red circle
with a white X. (A question mark icon is an unknown error.) Warnings are
designated by a yellow triangle with a black exclamation point. A successful
validation is designated by a green circle with a white checkmark. You must
correct any errors before you can start the recovery. You must revalidate the
selected server until the validation check passes without errors. Once the
validation is successful, click Next to continue.

15. At the Recovery summary page, you can review the choices you have made and

you can also set optional data transmission and e-mail notification settings. If you
need to make any changes to the selections you made, click Back to return to the
previous pages. If you want to

configure optional settings

, click Configure. Once

you have completed your configuration, click Finish to start the recovery.

16. Monitor the progress of the recovery mirror on the

Monitor

page.

17. When the recovery mirror has completed, the recovery server will automatically

reboot to complete the recovery process. If you specified to pause the recovery
before applying the system state, when the mirror is complete, the Activity will
change to Protected. Use this time to complete any necessary tasks. When you
are ready to complete the recovery, click Recover on the Monitor page toolbar to
complete the recovery process. Once the recovery server has been rebooted, it will
become the original source server.

Note

Because the Windows product activation is dependent on hardware, you
may need to reactivate your Windows registration after recovery. Follow
the on-screen prompts to complete the reactivation.
