Require manual intervention before actually failing over—When

Note: Once protection is established, Storage Mirroring Recover monitors the

virtual disks of the protected virtual machine for changes to the disk layout.
If a new virtual hard disk is added to the virtual machine, the protection job
will automatically be updated to include the new virtual hard disk, and a file
difference mirror will automatically start. However, if a virtual hard disk is
removed from the protected virtual machine, the virtual hard disk will not be
removed from the projection job until it is deleted from the source or the
protection job is deleted and re-created.

If your source is a cluster and the Storage Mirroring service on the source is
stopped and restarted but failover is not initiated, you will need to manually
bring the Double-Take Source Connection resource back online in order for
your Hyper-V job to reconnect and transition to a good state.
