Last week I built a new system that needs to be added to an SRM PG.
It is placed into the correct vCenter Folder and Datastore
When I right-click or click the actions menu I see the Edit, Delete, Restore Placeholder and configure All for a second and then they becomes grayed out
I ran a Test SRM to ensure that SRM is functioning properly and it seems to be protecting. Replication also is healthy on the array.
There are no hung recoveries or re-protects in progress.. the status is ready
The status of all our Protection Groups is 'OK' except the one we're trying to modify as its complaining about a VM that needs configuration... which is what I'm trying to do!
The other PG's we have are in OK status and they can't be edited either.
Things I've tried:
1. Restarted the Inventory Service many times on both vcenter servers (linked mode between protected and recovery site) - verified pointing, registered and connection status.
2. Removed the PG from a recovery plan - no dice
3. I noticed that the only PG that I CAN edit is the one that uses vSphere based replication, the others all use ABR and I cannot edit any of them....
4. I'm logged in with a domain account that has full admin privileges in our vSphere environment. But I've tried everything above using admin@vsphere.local as well
Thoughts?
vSphere 5.5 (soon to be upgraded to 6.5)
Windows 2008 R2 vCenter Servers
