SRM License

[Mozron]

Hi,

vCenter 6.5

SRM 6.1

Storage base replication

i'd like to add additional 100 vm to a new site recovery protection group with a new recovery plan, I have purchased the licenses from VMware but unsure how to assign them or even expand the current license capacity from 230 to 330 to accommodate the new Protection Group. I have added the new 100 license to vCenter, but when i create a new protection group with recovery plan it then shows I'm consuming more than the capacity. Its not using the Newly purchased License.

Also, while i'm on the subject of SRM, Can i create multiple Recovery plans for a single protection group. I have added 50 plus VMs to a LUN, I want to DR a group across. Every time i try to create a new Recovery plan it only gives me the option to select the Protection group, not VMs from that group. Is it one recovery plan for one protection group?

Usage is high from Capacity of your license as showed in the screenshot which you attached, better increase the capacity of your license that would help you in that case.

or use new license which has sufficient capacity as per your requirement.

As you can see from, i've purchased the capacity, added the license to vCenter but how do i assign the new capacity to new protection group within the current SRM?

Can you check in Asset TAB >> Under Solution where you will see SRM but I don't think we have option to configure multiple license anyway give an try.

no, nothing in assets

When you click Asset
>>> Then you need to click on "Solutions" where you will see SRM Product.
>> Select that and then you can assign license with option "Assign License".

Fyi, only one license you can assigned there.
