Hi Mohammed,

If you are using storage based replication, SRM will protect all VMs from replicated LUN and it does not let you select individual VMs. If you wish to test  a single VM, you need to have a single LUN with just one VM in it.

Mohamed,

If you are using VVOL, I believe it is configured with storage policies. If you are testing the functionalities, you need to configure storage policy for a single VM and the associated datastore
