replicating VMs from one remote site to another remote site WITHIN the same vcenter

Hi folks,

We are having to move datacenters so i am looking to use vSphere Replication to handle this.  I am not able to find the answer anywhere.

Okay here is the configuration

vCenter Appliance is running on a 4 node esxi cluster in Washington DC

vSphere Replication Appliance(and default Replication Server) is also in the same cluster in Washington DC

Remote Site 1 - vsphere datacenter object with a 4 node esxi cluster

New Remote site 2 - vsphere datacenter object with a 4 node cluster.

I need to migrate the VM's from Remote Site 1 to New Remote Site 2

It looks like the heavy lifting processing will be handled by the the vSphere Replication Appliance(with the default Replication Server) in Washington DC. 

Should i install another vSphere Replication Server in Remote Site 1 to handle the processing and not have the Replication Server in Washington DC do it?
