testing recovery packages in Continental Clusters

[Aaron1_1]

We have several SG packages in our primary cluster.  Of course, we cannot get downtime for all of them but we would like to test some of the recovery packages in the secondary cluster while the primary cluster is still up.  We tried the cmrecovercl -f but still need the alarm notification before we can start the recovery package.  We do have the primary package down when we try to start the recovery package.  Is there a way to trick Contienental Clusters to let us start a few recovery packages while the primary cluster is still up?
