Abstract
An autonomous system for detecting primary site failure on a Replication Data Facility (RDF) and automating failover to a destination site includes a replication data facility health monitor on a destination site that monitors a plurality of health indicators of the primary site. Example health indicators include RDF session state of RDF sessions on the replication data facility, and reachability of a set of IP addresses. Example IP addresses include an IP address of a cluster master node on the primary site, IP addresses of all of the cluster nodes on the primary site, and IP addresses of Network Attached Storage (NAS) servers executing on the cluster nodes. The replication data facility health monitor generates a replication configuration and, upon detection of a failure of the replication data facility at the primary site, uses the replication configuration to automate failover of all of the NAS servers to the destination site.
