Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center high availability disaster recovery

A Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center high availability disaster recovery is a failover mechanism that requires manual switchover between primary and secondary Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center units.

Manual switchover in disaster recovery

Manual switchover is required when a disaster recovery situation occurs in a high availability pair.

When the primary Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center, FMC1, fails, use the web interface of the secondary Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center, FMC2, to switch peers.
This process is applicable if either the primary or secondary unit fails.

For more information, see Switch peer roles in the Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Center high availability pair.

For restoring a failed unit, see Replace Cloud-Delivered Firewall Management Centers in a high availability pair.
