Simulating data changes after failover
While your source is failed over to your target, end users continue to work without
interruption and the data on the target will be updated. To fully evaluate the next step,
restoration, simulate the changes that the end users would have made on the target
while the source was unavailable.
1. Identify the file that you edited earlier on the source.
2. Locate that same file on the target and make edits to it. Save the changes.
3. Repeat that process, modifying the other three files from earlier, but this time make
the modifications on the target copy of the file. Save the changes.
If desired, you can also test the target data as you did earlier. You can test user data
using the associated application, and you can save the changes if desired. If you want to
test application data, start the application services on the target, and test the application
data by using clients to connect to the application. Because the source is now failed
over, you will not need to worry about pausing the target or configuring clients to access
the application from the target. The clients will continue to access the source, which is
now being handled by the target machine.
