You can adjust the storage settings to modify how VMware Live Site Recovery and vCenter Server communicate with the storage replication adapter (SRA).

Procedure

  1. In the vSphere Client, click Site Recovery > Open Site Recovery.
  2. On the Live Site Recovery home tab, select a site pair, and click View Details.
  3. In the left pane, click Configure > Advanced Settings > Storage.
  4. Select a site, and click Edit to modify the storage settings.
    Option Action
    Change the time in seconds to wait before attempting to attach tags to recovered datastores. The default value is 30 seconds. Enter a new value in the storage.attachTagsDelaySec text box.
    Change timeout in seconds for running an SRA command. The default value is 300 seconds. Enter a new value in the storage.commandTimeout text box.
    Change timeout in seconds between datastore monitoring related operations. The default value is 30 seconds. Enter a new value in the storage.datastoreMonitoringPollingInterval text box.
    Allow VMware Live Site Recovery to create tag categories and the Replicated tag that Storage DRS compatibility requires. The default value is true. Move the slider to change the value of storage.enableSdrsStandardTagCategoryCreation.
    Allow VMware Live Site Recovery to automatically create and attach tags to replicated or protected datastores for Storage DRS compatibility. The default value is true. Move the slider to change the value of storage.enableSdrsTagging. If you change the value to false, VMware Live Site Recovery deletes all the tags and tag categories and breaks compatibility with Storage DRS.
    Allow VMware Live Site Recovery to repair missing or incorrect tags on replicated or protected datastores for Storage DRS compatibility. The default value is true. Move the slider to change the value of storage.enableSdrsTaggingRepair check box.
    Change the maximum number of concurrent SRA operations. The default value is 5. Enter a new value in the storage.maxConcurrentCommandCnt text box.
    Change the maximum length in bytes of the SRA command console output to log. The default value is 1048576 bytes (1 MB). Enter a new value in the storage.maxSraCommandOutputLength text box.
    • A value of 0 means no SRA output log.
    • A value of -1 means unlimited length.
    • If you enter a value that is different from 0, -1, and it is not within the interval between 512 bytes and 10 MB, the value is automatically set to the default 1 MB.
    Change the minimum amount of time in seconds between datastore group computations. The default value is 0. Enter a new value in the storage.minDsGroupComputationInterval text box.
    Change the interval between status updates for ongoing data synchronization operations. The default value is 30 seconds. Enter a new value in the storage.querySyncStatusPollingInterval text box.
    Change the interval between Storage DRS tagging-related operations. The default value is 50 seconds. Enter a new value in the storage.sdrsTaggingPollInterval text box.
    Change the interval between storage array discovery checks. The default value is 86400 seconds (24 hours). Enter a new value in the storage.storagePingInterval text box.
    Change the maximum amount of time permitted for data synchronization operations to complete. The default value is 86400 seconds (24 hours). Enter a new value in the storage.syncTimeout text box.
