[SRM 6.5] Communication of the virtual machines between ESXi with the test network

It is possible the communication of the virtual machines between ESXi with the test network  when I do a test recovery plan? I speak about the test netowrk that SRM create.

The costumer told me that SRM 5.5 he could comunicate the VM between ESXi with the network test. I think it is not posible because there are not uplinks in the standard switch.

Thanks

You are correct - VMs running on different ESXi hosts cannot communicate over Test Networks created by SRM. If you need this kind of configuration, you need to pre-create the test network and tell SRM to use that network during test.
