An automatic failover occurs in response to a failure that causes a synchronized secondary replica to transition to the primary
role (with guaranteed data protection). When the former primary replica becomes available, it transitions to the secondary role.
Automatic failover requires that both the primary replica and the target secondary replica are running under synchronous-commit mode with the failover mode set to “Automatic”. In addition, the secondary replica must already be synchronized, have
WSFC quorum, and meet the conditions specified by the flexible failover policy of the availability group.
