    Hi Sebastian,.

    Yes, vCloud Air Disaster Recovery allows to easily backup and catering for your workloads cloud virtualized (and not virtualized using one of our third party partners), using management tools you already use on-Prem when your customer subscribes to vCloud Air Disaster Recovery, they will be able to select vCloud Air as a backup destination for their VMs within vCloud Director (see link below for a tutorial video demonstration of this action).  vCloud Air Disaster Recovery using vSphere replication to manage failover and failback of the virtual machines.  It does not require a separate, purchase everything necessary to facilitate backup and restore is included in the price of subscription vCloud Air Disaster Recovery.

    If the client experiences a disaster, they will be able to turn the virtual machines that they were back up to the cloud (up to 15 minutes RPO), in the Air of vCloud.  They have 30 days to use their ability subscribed free of charge, with the possibility of adding more resources, if necessary.

  • On-site application move to vCloud Air

    Hello

    Is it possible to move applications easily on site, VM or vApps to vCloud Air?

    Kind regards

    BA

    Absolutely, the benefits of vCloud Air include compatibility and portability of bidirectional load with vSphere environments.   With our tool, vCloud connector, users can easily migrate VMS and vAPPs to vCloud Air and then back if so chosen.

  • Integration of the workstation with vCloud Air

    Hello vCloud Air guys!

    First of all, I would like to write that I really like the vCloud air service and I test extensively :-)

    I have two very simple questions:

    When there is a successor of a connector vCloud and vCloud Air integration plugin for Web Client (and therefore not in vSphere 6)?

    Great idea is to combine VMware Workstation and vCloud Air OnDemand, but I lack the opportunities to establish VPN tunnels directly from the workstation on board bridge on vCloud Air.

    Are you planning to introduce such a solution?

    Best regards

    Piotr

    It's something we can consider.  We are working on the next characteristic series of this integration to provide more basic functionality that is currently missing (power controls, etc.).

    But I like the idea... will have to depend on the platform updated to our Advanced Networking Services that is the case this year (because ssl - vpn via API will be exposed via NSX - V), but I'm leading the integration of computer work, so I'll take this low = feedback)

  • vCLOUD AIR - SRM - RPO

    Hello David,.

    I read that vCloud Air currently does not support the SRM and the lowest RPO is 15 minutes.

    Can we expect major SRM and RPO Times, updates this year?

    Hello

    As we previously announced, we are working on a product called Air SRM.  This product is not intended to integrate with the SRM prem, but rather a tool of orchestration and payback for vCloud Air DR plan.  The output of Air of SRM in vCloud DR Air is planned for the second half of this year.

    Lower RPO time is an element of the road map, and the target release date is announced later this year.

    Answers to your questions:

    -You can see the vCloud updated map to know where on the Web site: vCloud locations - VMware vCloud Air Air

    If you need a more specific location (for put in a private line, MPLS/VPLS), you can see them here: Direct Connect - VMware vCloud Air

    -Info security & compliance is here: reports of Certifications of compliance - VMware vCloud Air the AT101 full compliance are available under NDA - you will need to contact your VMware representative for this.

    -Partners VMware must reach their hybrid Cloud competence to transact

    Hope that helps!

  • vCloud connector 2.5 - copy the model of vSphere to vCloud Director fails

    Hi all

    I'm trying to make a copy of the model of the private Cloud for vSphere (e.g. my instance of vCenter lab) the vCloud Director private cloud (my instance vCD lab, which is deployed and registered with the same instance of vCenter mentioned above) with vCloud connector 2.5.

    I have deployed the server component of vCC, configured and deployed two nodes of vCC - a to connect to vCenter for private cloud config vSphere and another to connect to the vCloud Director org for the basic cloud vCD config private. Moreover, the vCloud Director is registered to the same instance of vCenter which is used for vSphere cloud.

    I then tried to open a copy of the model from the vSphere cloud node to the node of vCD. The task to export the OVF template will start, and the task of SCR plugin will also display the copy task. This vCD instance also model any TIME if you go to the properties of the VDC organization selected during the SCR copy Wizard.

    After about 18%, the percentage remains stuck there for a little bit before the 'Export OVF Template"task fails with"Operation timed out ". After that, the task indicated in the vCC plugin will fail also later with (OVF Export failed. Null message) and the import of VAPP model in vCD job will fail also - VAPP failure will take upward of space inside the affected storage however profile until I have manually remove the failing through vCD VAPP model object.

    Anyone else having this problem? I've seen this problem on both environments so far: vCenter 5.1 update 1 with vCD 5.1.2 and vCenter 5.5 with vCD 5.5. If the problem seems to be specific to the version of vSphere. The logs generated by server SCR bee all that useful for me to understand what went wrong did not.

    Thank you

  • Console VSphere to VCloud 1.5?

    Is no way (even if through the API) to spawn console vSphere VM presented by vCloud?  I ask as a feature we if said that the new line would allow the customer connected USB devices via the console.  We can do that through vSphere 5, but it seems that vCloud has a very limited console that does not allow this.

    All information available on this?

    Thank you

    I'm sorry to say that it seems that this feature is not available in 1.5.  Best I can tell it was supposed to be there, but what I can find in the research is that it isn't here.  I have seen some indications that, even to run the virtual machine, must have a USB controller.  I know when I come to deploy a new virtual machine in vCD from scratch, there is no USB controller added as material virtual.  I suspect that this may be a future addition, but to me it doesn't seem to be available.
