Verifying the configuration

Edit online

After the KSYS subsystem discovers the resources, it monitors the entire environment for any disaster situations and verifies whether the configuration setting is valid for both sites. This verification is required to ensure that the backup site is ready to host the workloads of the virtual machines from the home site during a site switch for disaster recovery operation. If you have set a priority to specific virtual machines, the verification operation is initiated for the virtual machines that have the highest priority.

To validate the configuration setting in both sites, complete one of the following steps in the KSYS node:

To validate the configuration in the home site, run the following command:
```
ksysmgr verify site home_site_name
```
The KSYS subsystem validates the configuration settings on all the hosts and virtual machines from all the host groups across both sites. You can perform both the discovery and verification operations by running the following command:
```
ksysmgr discover site site_name verify=yes
```
To validate the configuration for a specific host group, run the following command:
```
ksysmgr verify host_group hg_name
```
or,
```
ksysmgr discover host_group hg_name verify=yes
```

To validate the configuration for a specific workgroup, run the following command:

ksysmgr verify workgroup workgroup_name

or,

ksysmgr discover workgroup workgroup_name verify=yes

If an error occurs during the verify operation, the ksysmgr command-line interface displays the error message. You can also run the ksysmgr query system status command to view the status of the virtual machine.
