[sandip22490]

Hi there,

Could you please provide details on how to implement DR if you are using the WVD service?

Is there any reference document available for the same?

@sandip22490 Thanks for your Question. I am checking with internal team on the documentation for your ask.

However, you can consider Azure Site Recovery for WVD DR.

@sandip22490 - are you looking for a site failover solution or something less like should a node go down?

[sandip22490]

Basically, I am looking for typical DR solution. Based on my understanding WVD is global service and Azure manages HA and resiliency of WVD service and it's components. However, VMs associated within host pool are regional. In the event of regional outage, how one can continue using WVD?

@sandip22490 I checked with internal team on this. Got information that WVD team is working on document for business continuity and disaster recovery best practices for WVD. The document will be published soon (tentative timelines are 3 weeks from now).

As per MS, WVD DR DOC will be ready by next month but Auzre VM can put in DR with proper replication and can be connected to WVD enviroment.

"As per MS, WVD DR DOC will be ready by next month" - proof ?

[vsolanki1]

I spoke to MS customer service but they are not sure they are just expecting .

[SokoloffMaxim]

looks like they silently added a page to WVD doco https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/blob/master/articles/virtual-desktop/disaster-recovery.md (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-desktop/disaster-recovery)
