Greyed-out Inititiating Test Failover Button - North Europe Region

Alex K. Mosweu 1

I have an ASR Vault hosted on the North Europe region, the ASR is hosting replicated items from on-prem VMM.
I am currently trying to initiated Test Failover of the replicated VM's and the task does not initiate.

The "Okay Button" after selecting the Vnet is greyed-out and cannot initiate the test failover.

Any ideas?

Hi @Alex K. Mosweu - Thank you for contacting us!

The thread title makes it clear that, you are trying to perform test failover using ASR but the option is grayed out.

Did you ever perform a test failover before or had any successful replication cycles of the workload from on-prem VMM to Azure? If yes, ensure you performed clean up task as mentioned in the doc - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/site-recovery/site-recovery-test-failover-to-azure step#7.

Also, if possible share the screenshot of the page that shows "Test-Failover" grayed out.

@Alex K. Mosweu - Appreciate your patience in this matter!

Sorry for the inconvenience this must have caused.

We had an issue where 'Test failover' blade was failing to load in Portal. This occurred because backend service was taking more time than expected to provide the recovery points and a recent change caused Portal framework to reject these time taking requests.

Hotfix deployed to all regions. We started receiving emails from impacted users that the issue is resolved now and everything is working as expected.

Thanks for your understanding!
