An Isilon customer has two 5-node clusters; one for production and one for disaster recovery (DR). The customer's workflows are replicated to the DR cluster through SyncIQ on individual schedules. They shutdown their production cluster for a scheduled DR test, failed over to the DR cluster, and continue their DR testing. Assume both clusters have identical shares, exports, and user authentication and that the client applications have been stopped and the DNS re-pointed. What is the correct method to continue production operations?
