Abstract: Systems and methods of orchestrating recoveries of virtual machines protected by a data management systems from a primary system to a secondary system, such that performing the recoveries depends on relationships between the virtual machines. First data indicative of a recovery plan associated with a failover of at least one group of virtual machines is received. The recovery plan includes an application group with data indicative of a hierarchical relationship between the virtual machines wherein each of the virtual machines is associated with an order based on the second data. A plurality of sequences is created in the application group to designate an order of executing a plurality of recoveries for each of the virtual machines. A first recovery is executed in parallel for each of the virtual machines associated with a first sequence and a subsequent recovery is executed in parallel for each of a subsequent set of sequences.
