Abstract
Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for managing health conditions to determine when to restart replication after a swap triggered by a storage health event. A determination is made of a health condition with respect to access to a first storage that triggers a swap operation. The swap operation redirects host Input/Output (I/O) requests to data from a first server to a second server in response to determining the health condition. After the swap operation the I/O requests are directed to the second server and a second storage. The second server is instructed to mirror data in the second storage to the first server to store in the first storage in response to determining that the health condition is resolved.
