Below is the procedure to use the resource group TC-DevTest-EGIS-PLT-DR-RG in the subscription TC-DevTest-UC to deploy the DR system.

How to
...
use the DR system?
DR system should be used only when the PILOT system is not functioning well and needs time to resolve the problems.
Restart all the VMs in TC-Sandbox-BXUeGISDevTest-EGIS-PLT-DR-RG with the following order:
Restart egis-bxu-por0
Restart egis-bxu-gis0
Restart egis-bxu-ds0
Restart egis-bxu-evt0
Restart egis-bxu-web0
...
Watch plt-dr, the “Degraded“ will change to “Online“ once the DR system is running. Depending on the status of PILOT, bringing down PILOT may be required by “disable” plt in the above figure if plt still shows “Online“. This will make sure that https://egis-sige.tcgis.ca/portal is indeed from the DR system.

cd 'D:\DSC\PowerShell DSC'
PS C:\scripts\Site Backup\portal> ./RestoreSite –BackupPropertiesFile egis_backup_full.properties
