I am sure that When I take a snapshot of the VM, all my RDM disks(virtual compatibility) marked as Independent persistent will not be part of my Snapshot.&amp;nbsp; We have a plan to upgrade software in the VM's and test the rollback scenario.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Take snapshot of the VM (Only VMDK's will be part of snapshot)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Clone the RDM disks using Storage clone technology.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Upgrade the Software&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Power off the VM's&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Remove the existing RDM disks from virtual machines&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Revert the Snapshot&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Assign the Clone RDM's to the ESXi and create mapping VMDK's from ESXi host&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Attach the mapping VMDK to each of the VM's&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Power on the VM&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;We never tested Snapshot Revert and Storage Clone at the same time. Can someone suggest, if you have an idea to better handle this activity?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Mohammed&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.vmwarearena.com/"&gt;www.vmwarearena.com&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;HTML&gt;&lt;HEAD&gt;&lt;/HEAD&gt;&lt;BODY&gt;&lt;P&gt;I hope for redundancy , you need have load balancer configured between your PSC. If you are looking for redundancy for vCenter, We now have native vCenter High Availability in vSphere 6.5. It provides redundancy and its failover to other vCenter server, if one failed. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Take a look at this article for more information about vCenter 6.5 native HA&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.cloudinspiration.com/vsphere-6-5-configuring-vcenter-server-6-5-ha/" title="http://www.cloudinspiration.com/vsphere-6-5-configuring-vcenter-server-6-5-ha/"&gt;http://www.cloudinspiration.com/vsphere-6-5-configuring-vcenter-server-6-5-ha/&lt;/A&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.cloudinspiration.com/vsphere-6-5-vcenter-6-5-native-ha-failover-testing/" title="http://www.cloudinspiration.com/vsphere-6-5-vcenter-6-5-native-ha-failover-testing/"&gt;http://www.cloudinspiration.com/vsphere-6-5-vcenter-6-5-native-ha-failover-testing/&lt;/A&gt; &lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>

StoreVirtual VSA is a virtual storage appliance optimized for VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V environments.It creates a virtual array within your application server and scales as storage needs evolve. The ability to use internal storage within your environment greatly increases storage utilization, and eliminates the costs and complexity associated with dedicated external storage.Its built-in high availability and disaster recovery features ensure business continuity for the entire virtual environment. It is free replication software from HP.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P style="margin: 1em 0; color: #555555; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px;"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;A href="http://www.vmwarearena.com/2015/09/vmware-srm-6-0-array-based-replication-part-1-deploying-hp-store-virtual-vsa.html" style="color: #21759b;"&gt;VMware SRM 6.0 Array Based Replication Part 1 – Deploying HP Store Virtual VSA&lt;/A&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P style="margin: 1em 0; color: #555555; font-family: 'Open Sans'; font-size: 15px;"&gt;This article will help you to understand the procedure to deploy the HP store Virtual appliance in top of hypervisor.
