The secondary data center is typically managed by a different vCenter Server. When you set up the secondary data center, you can configure and implement the following based on your requirements.

  • VMware Identity Manager appliances in the secondary data center, created from an OVA file imported from the primary data center
  • Load balancer for the secondary data center
  • Duplicate Horizon View and Citrix-based resources and entitlements
  • Database configuration
  • Load balancer or DNS entry across the primary and secondary data centers for failover
