Hi guys
Please if you could assist, we running our SRM environment typically on SAN based replication and have a few VM's we would like to start protecting (within SRM and not the replication standalone appliances) certain VM's using vSphere replication. I have setup the necessary and done the successful failover, however, I need to change the replication direction back to the original site to fail back. Because on SAN, the SRA instructs the array to change the replication in reverse using "REPROTECT" and preparing the new recovery site for failover, I'm unable to reprotect the replication in reverse using the VR.
I have tried running the protection again, but it only wants to protect from my original site to the DR site, which is incorrect because I've just failed over to my DR site.
Do I do this on the webclient of the VM? Is there another manner etc?
Please if you could share your thoughts - running SRM 5.1 on vCenter 5.1
thank you
