What do you mean when you say you configured a separate NIC separated to replication alone on the appliances? This is not a documented configuration, so far as I can see (if I am mistaken, please provide me the link). If you want to separate replication on the appliances, you should deploy out additional HBR servers for the replication.

However, the ESXi hosts on the source site must also be able to reach the replication ports. Run the following commands on the host that is managing the 'TestVM'.

"vim-cmd vmsvc/getallvms"

Then note the VMID of the TestVM (it will be an integer)

Then run:

vim-cmd hbrsvc/vmreplica.getConfig <VMID>

where <VMID> is replaced with the VMID you recorded above.

Check the Destination IP Address for the replication and ensure that your host can reach this address on port 31031. You could use the 'nc -z <IP Address> 31031' command to test the connectivity.
