Can I use vSphere replication for VMs on a logical unit number that is doing table replication to DR site

Hi guys, could not find the answer on any Docs/KBs. With the implementation of normal SRM, I know you can use a mixture of the two, while a virtual machine is not protected by the table and vR.

I need to make a site of NEW Dr. C while maintaining the current Bay of NETAPP on protection SRM of Site B.

Will this be an approach to support? Step 0 is required?

0 > get my guys to storage to stop replication on LUN - XYZ table (IF ANY) on

1 > delete virtual machines on LUN XYZ of SRM existing Protection groups.

2 > use vSphere replication to replicate the VMs who live on the LUN - XYZ

3 > repeat the process until all LUNS have been treated like that.

It should work without problem. I would recommend just a change in order to:

1 (also remove the logic of the PG unit number), 0, 2, 3

If you want to leave the computer on the same LUN virtual then step 0 is not necessary, but recommended (see below). If want to let the replication logic unit number and can just svmotion the VM, which would work as well.

From a data protection perspective, as long as you understand the potential complications, I recommend you actually starting with step 2. Technically, you don't want to not have the same virtual machine reproduced several times, in this case since you are in transition, and if you understand that retrieve the VM using a method will break the other, and you can not the virtual machine protection with the two (VR & ABR) in SRM, you should be ok.

Hope it makes sense. If this is not the case, let me know.

  • Can I use vSphere Replicaiton to clone Production to the doctor?

    VMGods Hey!

    I'm trying to gain time to build my DR site by cloning my Production VMs on our DR site continuously, rather than on each computer virtual ground accumulate.  In total, we are talking about 80-90 mV, a mixture of Linux and Windows.  Us are currently approved for Enterprise + and have independent vcenter on our Production and DR sites, the two 5.5 running (vCenter and ESXi).  The question is, if I use vSphere replication to replicate my Prod VMs to the doctor, I can then break all ties between the VM in seed Production and use the virtual machine cloned in DR regardless?  As a follow-up question, is there a way I can run sysprep after replication automatically on the replica of VM?

    Thank you!

    Hi Jared,

    Yes, you can use VR to create copies of the original VMs in an another server vCenter inventory.

    Once the initial full synchronization is complete, any changes to the original VMs will be replicated according to the parameters of RPO.

    Once you decide to stop replication, you can first call "Recovery Wizard" and establish the files replicated as VMs in vCenter inventory target. Power on stage is optional in the "Recovery Wizard". Please make sure that you use the last available-sync point - this will not affect the original VMs.

    After that the virtual machines 'recovered' are registered in vCenter target inventory, rehearsals will turn into "Recovered" status Then you can stop safely replication from the user interface and from that moment, there is nothing THAT VR associated virtual machines or in the user interface.

    Today, VR disconnects explicitly recovered virtual computers network cards.

    There is no integration of sysprep. You may build your own customization using Powershell or similar.

    MRS offers some customization options, but requires a separate license.

    Kind regards

  • Is it possible to use vSphere replication within the same site?

    Hello

    I was wondering if I could use vSphere replication in the same data center. The idea would be to have a configuration without shared storage appropriate for HA.

    Thank you!

    elgreco81

    Yes, it's not a problem at all. You can have a single unit of replication running and replicate to another data store.

  • Protection group virtual machines do not have consistent snapshop point in time using vSphere replication

    As the title, we feel when capturing instant timestamp for virtual machines in a protection group.

    Which means a group of database servers, applications, and others, when drill us test to start the virtual machines in the recovering site files timestamp in the virtual machines are varied.

    Snapshot work is executed simultaneously for all virtual machines in the group when planning replication hit? Or is it because certain virtual machines (like DB) speak more time to complete the snapshot so than others like apps VM completed early?

    Anyone hit this problem? We use vSphere replication instead of array based replication.

    Thanks /.

    Hello

    It is a behavior expected with current versions of vSphere replication - replication source host Scheduler is not aware of any grouping of virtual machines and starts the replica instance to meet the RPO requirements. The decision when to start a new instance is based on the time of loading and transfer to some of the previous instances.

    Multi-vm coherence is on the roadmap for a future release and will describe what exactly you address issues.

    If you use VR 5.5, you may use multiple points depending on the time (JEREMIAH) and after switching some of the old machines instances (represented by VM snapshots) to match the State of the other machines.

    Video preview for looks is not currently supported on Android. Your feature request was noted by the team.

    In the meantime, there is a video on the device you want to use as an overview, I would recommend taking a perforated CAP and still image as loading preview.

    Original title: How can I get a driver for an Epson Stylus Photo 950 printer that works with Windows 7?

    It is not listed in the list of printer drivers and I can't find anywhere on the web.

    Hello

    http://www.Epson.co.UK/printers-and-all-in-ones/inkjet/Epson-Stylus-Photo-950/drivers-support?target=article&Extn=.html&articleid=3394

    This article from Epson says that the driver is included in Windows 7.

    I don't see any info out there that clearly explains how to add it.  It simply States that you must go to "add a printer".  Looks like you already did this well.

    I would say following upward with support from Epson to see if they can offer some better instructions. Want to know if your hardware current & software will work with Windows 7? Click on these links: *Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor * *Windows 7 Compatibility Center*.

  • Determine if the logic unit number is in use

    Is there a way to determine if a logic unit number is used on a case of ESX?

    I'm cleaning up some old RDM LUN presented to on my ESX servers, and I want to confirm that they are not mapped to any virts. Is there a way of gui to do? I tried to develop a bash script to do, but the problem is somewhat difficult.

    Hello.

    Any ROW that are not attached to virtual machines is available by using the Add Hardware Wizard.  Try adding a hard drive to a virtual machine and choose "Raw Device Mappings" (if not grayed out) and anything that is listed is not in use.  If Raw Device Mappings is grayed out, you can use the free RVTools to find what VM has the RDM.

    Good luck!

    I'm looking to deploy a new ESXi server.  I am considering using 5.0 instead of 4.1.  Can I use the vSphere Client 5.0 to manage my 4.1 older servers or should I keep the customers the same version as the servers?

    We use Essentials so our configuration of VMWare is not very complicated.

    Thank you

    Welcome to the community,

    VMware uses an individual customer for each version. However, the version can co-exist and you start really is a launcher that determine the ESXi/vCenter version you will connect to and then starts the appropriate customer.
