<p id="en-us_topic_0122528555__p598930122518">SDRS provides the DR drill function. You can perform DR drills in a drill VPC (different from the VPC of the DR site). This function allows you to use the disk snapshots of the DR site servers to create drill servers with the server specifications and disk types same as the DR site servers.</p>
