SRM pairings in a 1 to many scenario

I have a SRM instance in a protected site (Site A) paired to another SRM instance in a recovery site (Site B). If I need to setup another recovery site (Site C), can I use the existing SRM instance of Site A and pair it with a SRM instance in Site C? Or, do I need to setup new SRM instances in both sites A and C and then pair them? I do realize that a given VM can only be protected once. A link to the official docs would be helpful.

Hi,

you have to use Shared Recovery setup. You can find more information in the SRM 8.2 doc: Installing Site Recovery Manager to Use with a Shared Recovery Site

Hope this help,

Daniel G.

Thanks for the response. I am not looking for a shared recovery site options, I was asking about a shared protected site i.e. can I pair a single SRM instance in a protected site with multiple SRM instances in different recovery sites.

These docs do talk about a shared protected site and are useful. Thanks!
