Reconnect a Site Pair and Breaking a Site Pair

You can reconfigure or break an existing site pair.

If you have problems with an existing site pair, you can attempt to reconnect the site pair with the Reconnect action. When you provide the required credentials, the reconfiguration operation attempts to repair the existing site pair.

With the Break Site Pair action, you can break the pairing between the VMware Live Site Recovery Server and vSphere Replication instances on the protected and the recovery sites. You can select which pairing to break. For example, you can break the pairing between the two VMware Live Site Recovery Server instances, the two vSphere Replication appliances, or both.

Note: You cannot use the Reconnect action to add a missing pairing or a pairing that was manually broken with Break Site Pair. If your site pair is missing a pairing, you must use New Site Pair to configure it.
