After a failover is complete, clients can again read and write Azure Storage data in the new primary region. However, the Azure Storage resource provider does not fail over, so resource management operations must still take place in the primary region. If the primary region is unavailable, you will not be able to perform management operations on the storage account.

The following features and services are not supported for account failover for the preview release:

- Azure File Sync does not support storage account failover. Storage accounts containing Azure file shares being used as cloud endpoints in Azure File Sync should not be failed over. Doing so will cause sync to stop working and may also cause unexpected data loss in the case of newly tiered files.

- A storage account containing archived blobs cannot be failed over. Maintain archived blobs in a separate storage account that you do not plan to fail over.

- A storage account containing any [WORM immutability policy](../blobs/storage-blob-immutable-storage.md) enabled containers cannot be failed over. Unlocked/locked time-based retention or legal hold policies prevent failover in order to maintain compliance.

- After the failover is complete, the following features may stop working if originally enabled: [Event subscriptions](../blobs/storage-blob-event-overview.md), [Change Feed](../blobs/storage-blob-change-feed.md), [Lifecycle policies](../blobs/storage-lifecycle-management-concepts.md), and [Storage Analytics Logging](storage-analytics-logging.md).
