Questions regarding DM failover and iSCSI
Two questions:
1. If I manual failback a datamover what's the outage to iSCSI connected hosts (VMware)?
2. What's the best way to failback a DM? We fixed the problem that caused the initial failover. Currently the old DM shows sate of "Out of service". From the GUI do I reboot it first...do restore...Which steps? Thanks!

server_standby server_4 -restore mover
where server_4 is the one you want to fail back to.
iSCSI connection will be retrying until the iSCSI target comes back online. What is your current disktimeout value set to ? In ESX and VMs ?

that really depends on your model, the number of file systems, which protocols are used and so on ....

just a restore
(If you have installed new NAS code on that data mover you want to do a reboot first)
