Use aliasses.

very short, check admin guide also

EVSERVER01 - alias EV001
EVSERVER02 - alias EV002
SQL - alias EVSQL (provided ev-servers are pointed to alias, see registry on them)

EVSTANDBY - alias EV003
SQLSTANDBY - no alias

configuration of indexes and storage needs to be 'accessible' (same drives/vmp/share) from all 3 ev-servers using same drives/vmp/share names

ProdDC explodes
verify databases on SQLSTANDBY are up and running.
EVSTANDBY have only admin and directory service started
DNS switch aliasses:
EV001 point to EVSTANDBY
EV002 point to STANDBY
EVSQL point to SQLSTANDBY
Login to EVSTANDBY using VSA
Run USL
When done, start other services.
