Troubleshooting: “Needs Configuration” Problems

When the VPG status changes to Needs Configuration, the settings in the VPG need to be checked and, when necessary, updated.

The following scenarios result in the VPG status changing to Needs Configuration:

A protected disk resize operation fails, for example when there is not enough disk space.
When a volume is added to a protected virtual machine and the VPG settings are not updated because of a site disconnection or a AWS error. In some situations, after the sites reconnect, the state corrects itself automatically.
