Discussion to Site Recovery Manager

[vbrowncoat]

Have you installed SRM at both sites? Have you paired the sites and created mappings, protection groups and recovery plans? These are all prerequisites to testing SRM and are clearly documented in the SRM install & configure documentation. Do you have any specific questions?

I want to know :when I make a virtual machine and  configure  vshpere replication ,then I will reset configure the virtual machine ,I will I'm going to temporarily remove protection,this operation ,This virtual machine later still need to reconfigure the protection?

Remove Protection from a Virtual Machine

You can temporarily remove protection from a replicated virtual machine without  removing it from its protection group. 

Removing protection deletes the placeholder virtual machine on the recovery site. If you remove protection from a virtual machine, the states of the virtual machine and the protection group are set to Not Configured. Running a recovery plan that contains the  protection group succeeds, but  Site Recovery Manager does not recover the virtual machines that are in the Not Configured state. 

You might remove protection from a virtual machine for different reasons:

■

You use  vSphere Replication and you want to reconfigure a protected virtual machine. You can remove protection while you reconfigure the virtual machine, so that ongoing  Site Recovery Manager test or real recoveries are not affected by the changes. For example, if you add devices to a virtual machine and run a recovery before you configure  vSphere Replication on the new devices, the recovery shows errors if you do not remove protection from the virtual machine.

"You can run only one recovery plan at a time to recover a particular protection group. If you simultaneously  test or run multiple recovery plans that specify the same protection group, only one recovery plan can operate on the protection group. Other running recovery plans that specify the same protection group report warnings for that protection group and the virtual machines it contains. The warnings explain that the virtual machines were recovered, but do not report other protection groups that the other recovery plans cover. " I don't understand   

[vbrowncoat]

What are you trying to accomplish? If you are just trying to protect a VM there isn't a reason to remove protection.

[vbrowncoat]

What don't you understand? A VM can only belong to one protection group. A protection group can belong to more than one recovery plan, and a VM can't be tested or recovered by more than one recovery plan simultaneously. Make sense?
