Monitoring DR Readiness for Eyeglass Assisted Failover

In addition to the Assisted Failover functionality, Eyeglass also provides the following features to monitor your SyncIQ Policy DR Readiness:

Policy DR Readiness Validation from the DR Dashboard
Runbook Robot from the DR Dashboard

Policy DR Readiness Validation

The DR Dashboard Policy Readiness tab provides a per SyncIQ Policy summary of all SyncIQ OneFS and Eyeglass Configuration replication Job statuses. The status for each are combined to provide an overall DR Status. The Policy Readiness is updated each time the Eyeglass Configuration Replication task runs.

This information provides the best indicator of DR readiness for failover and allows administrators to check status on each component of failover, identify status, errors and correct them to get each SyncIQ Policy configured and ready for failover.

If all of the SyncIQ Policy Failover Recommendations pass validation, the DR Dashboard status for the Policy is green indicating that the Policy is safe to failover.

If any of the SyncIQ Policy Failover Recommendations do NOT pass validation, the DR Dashboard status for the SyncIQ Policy is red indicating that the SyncIQ Policy is NOT ready to failover. Eyeglass will also issue a System Alarm for any of these conditions.

Additional information can be found in the “Policy Readiness and DFS Readiness” section of the Eyeglass Admin Guide here.

IMPORTANT:

If you make a change to your environment, the following Eyeglass tasks must run before the Policy Readiness will be updated:
