Description

For databases participating in an Availability Group. This wait type will accumulate when database recovery is waiting for secondary replicas to become synchronized with the primary replica. This most often occurs after failover (manual or automatic). This wait value will depend on the amount of activity occurring just before failover and how far the secondary was behind at the time. If values are excessive see suggested solutions below
