Disk signature on SRM/FT

Hi all,

I am using an application that is licenced for both MAC address and disk signature and I'd like to know if FT and/or SRM can preserve the disk (ID) signature.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Regards.

With FT the two VMs share a common disk so that the disk signature and MAC address will not change -

With SRM is different - The MAC address will need to be fixed because when the VM starts in the recovery site then a new MAC address will be generated. Depending on how the datastores are replicated the signature will not change.

If you find this or any other answer useful please consider awarding points by marking the answer correct or helpful
