Recovery to a third site from a pod means that the volumes are configured and protected differently depending on what site they are failed over to (the async target site or back to the pod-based site). A test recovery operation is also different from an array perspective. This section highlights two scenarios:
- Test recovery to an asynchronous target site of VMs residing on datastores in pod
- Test recovery back to a pod of VMs residing on datastores on an asychronous site
