$DtJobForAlpha = Get-DtJob -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta | Where-Object { $_.Statistics.CoreConnectionDetails.SourceMachineName -eq $DtServerObjectAlpha}

Disconnect-DtServer -ServiceHost $DtServerObjectBeta

A server object is created for the server beta using the domain\administrator and password credentials. It assigns the server object to the variable called DtServerObjectBeta. The job(s) are retrieved from DtServerObjectBeta, but only the job information where the source machine name is equivalent to the name stored in the variable DtServerObjectAlpha is retrieved. That information is then stored in the variable DtJobForAlpha. Then the recommended failover options for the specified job and server are returned. The connections for the server object are then closed.
