Testing Recovery Plans
After creating a recovery plan, test it to verify that it functions as expected.
1. From the Recovery Plans view, select the Summary tab.
2. Select a recovery plan in the left pane and click Test.
3. Choose Replicate recent changes to recovery site to ensure that the recovery site has the latest copy of protected
virtual machines. Choosing this option will cause synchronization to take longer to complete.
4. Review the confirmation window and click Finish.
5. Monitor the recovery plan by selecting the Recovery Steps tab.
The recovery plan steps through the process of creating virtual disk snapshots on the storage array, mapping snapshot
virtual disks to the ESX host, rescanning to detect new devices, and powering on the VMs.
