* Extension 1 supports [availability zone volume placement](use-availability-zones.md) as the new default method for placement. This upgrade mitigates the need for AVset pinning and eliminates the need for proximity placement groups. With support for availabilty zone volume placement, you only need to select the same availability zone as the database servers. Using availability zone volume placement aligns with the Microsoft recommendation on how to deploy SAP HANA infrastructures to achieve best performance with high-availability, maximum flexibility, and simplified deployment.

In this scenario, a DR setup must include only the volumes of the primary HANA system. With the daily replication of the primary data volume and the log backups of both the primary and secondary systems, the system can be recovered at the DR site. In the diagram, a single volume is used for the log backups of the primary and secondary systems.

In case of a takeover by the secondary HSR host, the backups taken in the secondary system won’t be replicated, but log backups of the secondary will continue to be replicated. If a disaster happens, the system at the DR site can still be recovered using the old snapshot backup from the former primary and the replicated log backups from both hosts. RTO will increase because more logs are to be recovered, depending on how long the HSR pair will run in the takeover mode. If the takeover mode is significantly longer and RTO becomes a problem, you need to set up a new cross-region replication including the data volume of the secondary system.
