Abstract

Example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method and system for immediate recovery of replicated virtual machines. The method includes replicating a complex asset from a first site of a distributed information processing system to a second site of the distributed information processing system. The replicated complex asset the may be configured at a first time in an active operational state but in a disconnected communicative state at the second site of the distributed information processing system. At a second time, the replicated complex asset may be configured in a connected communicative state at the second site of the distributed information processing system to facilitate recovery at the second site from a failure in the complex asset at the first site.
