> Duration of a failover can vary significantly in case of long-running transactions that happen on the databases due to [prolonged recovery time](sql-database-accelerated-database-recovery.md#the-current-database-recovery-process). Hence it’s not recommended to scale compute or storage of Azure SQL Database managed instance or to change service tier at the same time with the long-running transactions (data import, data processing jobs, index rebuild, etc.). Database failover that will be performed at the end of the operation will cancel ongoing transactions and result in prolonged recovery time.

[Accelerated database recovery](sql-database-accelerated-database-recovery.md) is not currently available for Azure SQL Database managed instances. Once enabled, this feature will significantly reduce variability of failover time, even in case of long-running transactions.
