An administrator needs to recover a cluster protected using the Cluster Protect feature.

The steps, in order, to recover a cluster protected using the Cluster Protect feature when the Prism Central instance was not on the failed cluster are as follows:

Step 1: Set the cluster to the Failed state using the NC2 console to start the recovery workflow.

Step 2: Redeploy the cluster using the NC2 console.

Step 3: Redeploy the Multicloud Snapshot Technology.

Step 4: Recover UVM data by running CLI commands.

Set the cluster to the Failed state using the NC2 console to start the recovery workflow: This step involves marking the cluster as failed to initiate the recovery process.

Redeploy the cluster using the NC2 console: Once the cluster is marked as failed, the next step is to redeploy it using the tools available in the NC2 console.

Redeploy the Multicloud Snapshot Technology: After the cluster is redeployed, the Multicloud Snapshot Technology needs to be redeployed to ensure data consistency and availability.

Recover UVM data by running CLI commands: The final step is to recover the User VM (UVM) data by executing the necessary CLI commands to restore the data from the snapshots or backups.
