Failover only works when you have initiated image access on a PiT. Therefore the PiT that has been selected when you entered image access will be used and any other PiT images that existed in the journal will be lost. Therefore it's important to ensure that the PiT used when initiating image access is tested thoroughly. This is one of the unique capabilities of RecoverPoint because it allows you to quickly and easily test the integrity of data and has the capability to roll the PiT backwards or forwards by choosing another PiT image before you decide to failover.
