Test-Integrity - Perform Integrity Test for Assured Recovery

The Test-Integrity command enables you to activate an automatic integrity test on a Replica host for assured recovery.

Notes:

• To activate the Test Integrity command, it is necessary to use a scenario with the Integrity Testing for Assured Recovery option turned to On.
• The Assured Recovery option supports both Replication and HA solutions. However, it is best suited for HA since the Replica server contains the actual database servers on which the test is performed, and not only data. If you are using AR test as a part of Replication scenario, you must verify that the root directories path is the same on the Master and the Replica. In addition, the Replica should have the database application installed, or share files if you test a File Server, and they need to be configured on the Master and the Replica in exactly the same way. Otherwise, the AR test will not produce meaningful results.
• The scenario needs to run before you start the test.
