Error connecting to site

Im trying to add a site but im getting this error:

The "Connect to target site to configure replications." operation failed for the entity with the following error message.

Cannot connect to the specified site. The site might not be available on the network or a network configuration problem might exist. Check your connection details and try again.

Both VRS and SRMs can see each other.

There are some points:

-The target site is using port 81 (Im specify this)

-I already have a VRS/SRM connected to another site, I added an additional

Everything seems to be fine with the connection. Any ideias?

Hi,

Which VR version are you using? There have been fixes for support of custom port for the vCenter reverse proxy.

Also, if using VR <5.8, which UI are you using to configure the VR pairing? C#-based one or the one in the WebClient?

Details for the failure will likely be available at VRMS logs at source site (/opt/vmware/hms/logs/hms.log) and/or vsphere-client-virgo.log (if pairing is being done via the WebClient) at vCenter machine.

Regards,

Martin
