Defining and Configuring the Zerto Cloud Sites

The Zerto Cloud Manager is a single point of management for all the cloud sites providing either DRaaS or ICDR.

Defining a site in the Zerto Cloud Manager involves defining a connection to a Zerto Virtual Manager.

To add a site:

1. Select the Sites tab.
2. Click ADD.

The Add Cloud Site dialog is displayed.

3. Specify the IP address of a VMware vSphere site where a Zerto Virtual Manager is running and the ZVM port specified during the installation to connect to the Zerto Virtual Manager. The default port is 9080.
Note: When the ZCM is v5.5 and above, and the ZVM is 5.0, communication is via HTTP port 9080.
When the ZCM and ZVM are both v5.5 and above, communication is via HTTPS port 9669.
Note: Zerto Cloud Manager supports CSP VMware vCenter Server and vCloud Director sites only.
4. Click SAVE.

The Zerto Cloud Manager connects to the site, as long as the Zerto Virtual Manager service is started.

5. Repeat this procedure for all the cloud sites.

After defining sites in Zerto Cloud Manager, you must configure these sites. You can configure the sites using the Zerto User Interface, as described in the Zerto Virtual Manager Administration Guide for your environment, or configure the sites directly in Zerto Cloud Manager.

Configuring a site involves the following:

Registering Zerto Sites
Adding a Security Certificate for the Zerto User Interface
Installing Virtual Replication Appliances on Hosts in Cloud Sites
(Optional) Configure vCloud Director
