Resolved Issues

  • VM network stays disconnected after performing a test failover

    When the DSwitch UUID and the PortGroup key are the same for the source site and the target site, Site Recovery Manager does not reconfigure the virtual machine to put its NICs to the target network. As a result vCenter Server does not create DVport to the host and the VM network is disconnected after recovery.

    This issue is fixed in Site Recovery Manager 8.4.0.6.

  • You receive a warning during storage configuration

    During the Storage Configuration step you receive the following warning: "Warning - Cannot complete the operation due to an incorrect request to the server." The warning appears if tagsare not attached correctly to VMs. There is no impact on the virtual machine functionality, the VM boots fine and is accessible after performing a Test recovery or Disaster Recovery.

    This issue is fixed in Site Recovery Manager 8.4.0.6.

  • After deploying the Site Recovery Manager appliance by using an OVF template, all the network information is missing

    When you power on the Site Recovery Manager appliance after deploying it by using an OVF template, all the network information is missing and you receive a ‘NO NETWORKING DETECTED’ error.

    This issue is fixed in Site Recovery Manager 8.4.0.6

  • Downloading a support buddle fails with error code 401

    You are unable to download a Site Recovery Manager support buddle from any browser. The operation fails with ‘Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 401 (Unauthorized)’.

    This isssue is fixed in Site Recovery Manager 8.4.0.6.

  • After performing a failover, the recovered virtual machine icon shows 3 dots

    If you manually map the protected disk of a virtual machine to another disk or detach the disk in the VM protection properties under the protection group, the recovered VM icon shows 3 dots after performing a failover as if it is still a placeholder VM.

    This issue is fixed in Site Recovery Manager 8.4.0.6.
