Hello,
We are using SRM 5.1 with vSphere replication.
I'm trying to get a rough idea of how long a reprotect operation would take after a failover, in particular the synchronisation of storage.
The manual says that:
"The full synchronization that appears in the recovery steps mostly performs checksums, and only a small amount of data is transferred through the network."
However in my testing this step still seems to take a long time to complete. For one 50GB guest it takes 40 minutes. My question is: what is the bottleneck here and can I speed things up?
In a live scenario I would have much larger guest VMs and I'm worried a reprotect could take days to synchronise the storage.
Thanks,
Steve
