i personally like dg broker cli and use it much. the nice thing about dg broker: you can disable it
and do what you want manually.
if you know the stuff, you can use the broker. if not, do it manually until you are familiar
with the process.

and yes, manual switchovers and failovers are faster, not much but faster.
