Configure new protection to replicate the workload from one site to another while keeping it running in the source site. After a successful replication, if the source site becomes unavailable, you can fail over and power on the protected workload in the destination site.
Note: With
VMware Cloud Director Availability 4.7.2 and later, you can create a replication for a virtual machine (VM) with enabled virtual Trusted Platform Module (vTPM), and with full, partial, or no encryption of the attached storage disks. You can also create a replication for a non-encrypted VM and encypt the VM as a part of the replication process. For more information, see
Create a replication for encrypted virtual machines.
Prerequisites
- Verify that VMware Cloud Director Availability 4.7 or later is deployed in both the source and in the destination sites.
- Verify that you can access VMware Cloud Director Availability as a tenant or as a provider. For more information, see Accessing VMware Cloud Director Availability.
