Force Replica to Primary

In the event of the unfortunate collision of circumstances where the replica's SRL overflows into the DCM and the primary site dies, is there a way to forcibly promote the replica to be the DR primary? If so, what are the procedures.

Once done, is a fast failback still possible, or is it a full resynch to get back to the primary?

Thomas,

You will need to takeover the RVG at the secondary with FastFaiBack logging enabled. When the primary comes back up, you will need to resynch the secondary. A full resynch is not necessary when FFB is used.
