vsphere replication

Hi,

As i understood how does VR works.

> the target hosts do all the writing on datastores ( where I kept replicas)

> VR appliance keep the track of changed block of vms and update the replicas so the VR appliance network will be congested?

is my assumption is correct?

any one can give any doc about it.

The replication traffic is sent from the ESXi host on which the source machine is registered to the DR site replication appliance.

The DR replication appliance then forwards the traffic to the ESXi hosting the DR VM replica through NFS.

The DR ESXi host then writes the data to the data files.

the below document should be a good startup .
