• Query on ZVR 5.5 Interoperability – vCenter 5.1
    • Migrating DR Environment

      We will be migrating our DR environment this coming weekend.  Currently DR has been living about 2 feet away from production to seed and test for the last several months. We will be fork-lifting that to our DR site starting Saturday – stay tuned for updates!

    • Can Zerto protect vCenter Appliances?

      Has anyone tried putting vCenter Appliances into a VPG for replication and potential recovery? Would this work and is it supported? Primary idea is to have a vCenter appliance for Horizon View (which would not be a paired ZVR vCenter instance) protected for recovery if needed.

    • Could I use Veeam replicated VMs to Preseed ZVR?

      Yes you can. We pre-seed from disks, not VMs. Therefore, what you need to do is: First deploy the Veeam replicated VMs which means failover/restore in Veeam (it wasn’t clear from the question whether the “Veeam replicated VMs” are already VMs or if they are just in the Veeam backup repository) After you have actual […]

    • NIC Settings on Failover

      Note: This question was pulled from an email thread. I’ve got question regarding failback in a scenario where I had to failover to a Hyper-V site from a VMware site. When failing over from VMware to Hyper-V the machines get converted but my question is specific to the NIC in case of a fail-back. Let’s […]

    • Long Distance vMotion

      We get some questions about long distance VMotion. Some things to consider: 1.       Long distance vMotion sends the entire data set in one go, you cannot pre-seed. Zerto allows replication with just the changes sent. 2.       Long distance vMotion will flood a link with all the data being sent which means its limited to moving VMs one […]
