Consider setting up Azure disaster recovery plans
The Azure Site Recovery service that help to failover in-house/AWS/Azure machines and Azure virtual machines (VMs).
This tutorial describes to set up disaster recovery for Azure VMs by replicating them from one Azure region to another.
Prerequisites
1. Create the vault in any region, except the source region.
Sign in to the Azure portal > Recovery Services.
Click Create a resource > Management Tools > Backup and Site Recovery.
In Name, specify a friendly name to identify the vault. If you have more than one subscription, select the appropriate one.
Create a resource group or select an existing one. Specify an Azure region. To check supported regions, see geographic availability in Azure Site Recovery Pricing Details.
To quickly access the vault from the dashboard, click Pin to dashboard and then click Create.
2.Verify target resource settings
Verify that your Azure subscription allows you to create VMs in the target region. Contact support to enable the required quota.
Make sure your subscription has enough resources to support VM sizes that match your source VMs. Site Recovery picks the same size, or the closest possible size, for the target VM.
3.Set up outbound network connectivity for VMs
you're using a URL-based firewall proxy to control outbound connectivity, allow access to these URLs.
*.blob.core.; *.hypervrecoverymanager. ;*.servicebus. ;login.
4.Create storage account
In the Azure portal, in the left menu, select Create a resource > Storage > Storage account.
5.Set up an Azure network
In the Azure portal, select Create a resource > Networking > Virtual network.

Enable replication for a VM
Select the source
In Recovery Services vaults, click the vault name > +Replicate.
In Source, select Azure.
In Source location, select the source Azure region where your VMs are currently running.
Select the Source subscription where the virtual machines are running. This can be any subscription within the same Azure Active Directory tenant where your recovery services vault exists.
Select the Source resource group, and click OK to save the settings.

Select the VMs
Site Recovery retrieves a list of the VMs associated with the subscription and resource group/cloud service.
In Virtual Machines, select the VMs you want to replicate.
Click OK.

Configure replication settings
Site Recovery creates default settings and replication policy for the target region. You can change the settings as required.
Click Settings to view the target and replication settings.
To override the default target settings, click Customize next to Resource group, Network, Storage and Availability.

Track replication status
In Settings, click Refresh to get the latest status.
Track progress and status as follows:
Track progress of the Enable protection job in Settings > Jobs > Site Recovery Jobs.
In Settings > Replicated Items, you can view the status of VMs and the initial replication progress. Click the VM to drill down into its settings.

Now we will test fail over drill.
In Settings > Replicated Items, click the VM +Test Failover icon.
In Test Failover, Select a recovery point to use for the failover:
Latest processed: Fails the VM over to the latest recovery point that was processed by the Site Recovery service. The time stamp is shown. With this option, no time is spent processing data, so it provides a low RTO (Recovery Time Objective)
Latest app-consistent: This option fails over all VMs to the latest app-consistent recovery point. The time stamp is shown.
Custom: Select any recovery point.
Select the target Azure virtual network to which Azure VMs in the secondary region will be connected, after the failover occurs.
To start the failover, click OK. To track progress, click the VM to open its properties. Or, you can click the Test Failover job in the vault name > Settings > Jobs > Site Recovery jobs.
After the failover finishes, the replica Azure VM appears in the Azure portal > Virtual Machines. Make sure that the VM is running, sized appropriately, and connected to the appropriate network.
To delete the VMs that were created during the test failover, click Cleanup test failover on the replicated item or the recovery plan. In Notes, record and save any observations associated with the test failover.
