@Dashrender This goes back to what he ws saying about keeping things in Sync.

So one has to ask, if you have a site wide unplanned outage but do have access to Azure, how do you get your Hyper-V data to them so you can at least get to a functional state?
Generally you would keep it synced there all of the time.
and how much does that cost? Yes I know this is a generic question that has no direct answer without knowing the amount of change, what your storage usage is, etc - but is it considered online and in usage when you don't have the VM's powered up?

Yeah I was writing questions while reading the thread.

From looking at the backup and site recovery pricing the answer is no. You just pay for the data transfer and the storage. When you spin it up you start paying for the compute cycles.

Depends how you do it. Do you just have it stored cold dr? Do you have it built as VMs but off warm dr? Do you have the VMs up and running hot dr? All makes a difference.

I would guess for most SMBs it would be the first or the second, probably the built VMs but off.
I looked at the VM storage cost - for my 2 TB that would be around $100/mth. Plus any transfer fee. Then it would be a matter of making the networking work. -

Not for @ntg but, you know, we are a bit hard core.

Always a challenge. This is where Pertino really rocks.

You have hot running VMs for DR? lol you value your uptime. How do you handle the networking side of things?

Yes. Our DR site is Azure Virginia (aka Azure East 2). Our secondary DC is there and always on.

From reading some other threads, it sounds like ZeroTier would be a perfect fit there as well, now, right?

I've already told Scott I would love to see one of the first major projects on the new NTG lab be to setup a ZT network.
But @Reid-Cooper post makes me think it would be cool to mirror NTG's network in the Lab and see how it works without the DNS craziness that Pertino has.

I like this idea. We could use the ZT Network for the NTG lab as a management network or something.
