Hi,
I am using Site Recovery Manager 6.5 along with vSphere ESXi 6.5 and vCenter 6.5.
When I activate SRM's recovery plan test with IP customization and let SRM replace Main Site's IP address & default gateway address, the recovery plan test completes successfully.
However, there's one thing that puzzles me, that is, target VM's /etc/hosts seems to be overwritten by SRM during IP customization sequence. Does anyone have any idea if this is actually done by SRM?
Here's how it is overwritten:
<before>
[Main Site's IP] [Main Site's hostname]
<after>
[DR Site's IP] [Main Site's hostname]
I have looked up KBs and "Site Recovery Manager Administration (Site Recovery Manager 6.5)", but there were no description of /etc/hosts overwriting behavior.
Thanks,
dona
