Some SRM questions before starting

Hello,

i tried to contact sales... but without success...

So i will ask here..

At first - what i want

We have a stretched cluster environment and i want to use SRM for "control" our DR strategy

I think this will work ´.

What i dont know:

I want to configure VCenter HA. So i get an active and passive VCenter.

Is this enough or do SRM need 2 active VCenter ?

Thanks

SRM requires a vCenter at each site so to use it with stretched storage requires an SRA that supports this configuration (look at the SRA compatibility guide and filter for "stretched storage").

Since SRM requires a vCenter at each site it doesn't need VC HA.
