Hi,
I created a failover azure to azure from one region to another with Azure site Recovery.
The primary site have a frontend load balance and two windows VM.
The load balance is connect to a traffic manager.
The secondary site have only the Azure site recovery resource. No VM are presents, only after the failover are created.

The traffic manager is configured for priority routing. Have 2 endpoint. First endpoint is the ip public of load balance.
Which is the second endpoint? Is an external, but I haven't a FQDN or IP in the second region, it is empty until the failover event.

The Azure site recovery have a plan of recovery where I add the 2 VM and a runbook "AddSingleLoadBalancer". The script copy my load balance with the ip public or I must edit it for recreate my enviroment?

Thank you

Giuseppe

    Ok. So site Recovery isn't automatic.
    The right sample is https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/site-recovery/concepts-traffic-manager-with-site-recovery#azure-to-azure-failover
    Paragraph Azure to Azure failover

    So which runbook I should use to automate Site Recovery?

    The next problem are:

    1. Traffic Manager's Failover endpoint must be external. But I have to create before the ip public in the failover site. Traffic Manager wants a public ip when I create the failover endpoint, I can't create it after the failover event automatically. Is right?
    2. In Site Recovery the runbook "AddSingleLoadBalancer" should be edited to connect with public ip and internal VM? Or recognizes the ip public present and VM created in failover site and connect to them in automatic?

    Thank you
