Abstract

The system and method for providing assured recovery and replication described herein may recover a master data source from a replica data source without impacting the master data source or the replica data source, and without having to install a standby version of an application associated with the master data source. In particular, a master snapshot may be created to copy application data stored in the master data source, wherein a replication server confirms that the replica data source can recover the master data source if the master snapshot and the replica data source are consistent. The replication server may create a replica snapshot to copy the replica data source and assign an identity associated with the master data source to the replica data source to recover the master data source. As such, replication may be resumed on a virtual machine disk file associated with the replica snapshot.
