Replica failure workflow

The table below outlines what happens when the replica for an active/passive link fails.

Step What you do What happens

Replica fails

1

On the primary system, suspend activity on the link

 

Replica comes back online

2

If the replica has been rebuilt:

On the replica, upload the replication SSL server certificate from the primary system

On the primary system, upload the replication SSL server certificate from the replica

 
3

On the primary system, update the link configuration as needed

 
4

If the link is broken, on the primary system, send a request to restore the link

Replication link is recreated; applicable tenants and directories on the primary system remain read-write; applicable tenants and directories on the replica are read-only

5

On the primary system or the replica, resume activity on the link

Replication from the primary system to the replica restarts from the beginning
