Application recovery configuration validation

An apparatus for data management, comprising:

• a processor;
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• receive a trigger indication to perform a test failover procedure for a plurality of virtual machines that are configured to backup data from a source system;
• identify, based at least in part on receiving the trigger indication, a set of procedures for performing a full failover procedure on a target system based at least in part on a recovery configuration for the plurality of virtual machines;
• select, for performing the test failover procedure and based at least in part on metadata associated with the plurality of virtual machines, a subset of test procedures of the set of procedures, wherein the subset of test procedures includes testing one or more network configurations for a first virtual machine on the target system and testing storage capacity of the target system;
• cause execution, on the target system, of the subset of test procedures on a subset of virtual machines of the plurality of virtual machines;
• and
• calculate, based at least in part on the execution of the subset of test procedures on the subset of virtual machines, a success metric associated with the full failover procedure for the plurality of virtual machines.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing code for data management, the code comprising instructions executable by a processor to:

• receive a trigger indication to perform a test failover procedure for a plurality of virtual machines that are configured to backup data from a source system;
• identify, based at least in part on receiving the trigger indication, a set of procedures for performing a full failover procedure on a target system based at least in part on a recovery configuration for the plurality of virtual machines;
• select, for performing the test failover procedure and based at least in part on metadata associated with the plurality of virtual machines, a subset of test procedures of the set of procedures, wherein the subset of test procedures includes testing one or more network configurations for a first virtual machine on the target system and testing storage capacity of the target system;
• cause execution, on the target system, of the subset of test procedures on a subset of virtual machines of the plurality of virtual machines;
• and
• calculate, based at least in part on the execution of the subset of test procedures on the subset of virtual machines, a success metric associated with the full failover procedure for the plurality of virtual machines.
