Why does CIFS replication not failover to the target VNX during the DR test?

A customer has two EMC VNX configured to replicate between sites. Each VNX has dual Control
Stations. The primary Control Station at the source site fails at 6 p.m. and reboots. At 8 p.m., the
customer completes DR testing and observes CIFS replication does not failover to the target site
VNX. Why does CIFS replication not failover to the target VNX during the DR test?

What is the source of the performance difference between the file and block configurations?

A customer has two identically configured Linux hosts (OS version, memory, CPU) attached to the
same network. One host is NFS-attached and the other is FC-attached to an EMC VNX. Both the
NFS file systems and the SAN LUNs are created from four RAID 5 (4+1) RAID groups. LUNs are
not shared between file and block.
The customer reports NFS-attached host is able to achieve much greater throughput via NFSv4
versus the FC-attached host.
