4.8.2 Application Component Failure
If an application component fails and must be recovered to the target site, the procedure is as follows:
1. Virtual machine is recovered by Site Recovery Manager or failed over using long-distance vSphere vMotion.
2. Virtual machine egresses the target data center (if local egress option is enabled).
3. Layer 2 adjacent virtual machines maintain connectivity through VXLAN across the WAN connection.
