PAS-C01 Migration Practice Question
A company is migrating an SAP HANA database to AWS. They have set up HANA System Replication (HSR) between the on-premises primary and an AWS secondary. The initial data synchronization is complete, but during the final cutover, the replication breaks due to network latency. What should the company do to complete the migration successfully?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Perform a manual takeover to promote the AWS secondary to primary.
The correct action is to perform a manual failover using HSR takeover, which will promote the AWS secondary to primary and allow the system to continue. Increasing timeout may not resolve underlying latency. Restarting replication will take time. Setting up a new replication is unnecessary.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Perform a manual takeover to promote the AWS secondary to primary.
Why this is correct
This completes the cutover and makes the AWS system the new primary.
- ✗
Set up a new HSR connection with a different port.
Why it's wrong here
Does not address the root cause; redundant.
- ✗
Increase the HSR timeout settings on the primary.
Why it's wrong here
May not solve the replication break due to latency; could delay detection of issues.
- ✗
Restart the initial synchronization from scratch.
Why it's wrong here
Time-consuming and may not address the latency issue.
