Part of the testing will be a full test of the WARP failover process that was hig hlighted as a hazard during the SRMP for the WARP upgrade to ERAM. This test will show how Harris will failover from either the ZTL site or the ZLC site. The process in a real failure will be need - based , so the first center that would be restored would be t he one that has the most weather impact at the time of the failure and then the process would continue until all site s are back up on the operational node. This is a major change to the configuration of WARP , so the failover test is critical for
