Copy VPG Settings

After defining VPGs, you can create a new VPG by copying the VPG-level settings of an existing one.

To copy VPG settings:

1. From either the protected or recovery site, in the VPGs tab, select the VPG to be copied and click MORE > Copy VPG Settings.

The Copy VPG wizard is displayed.

2. Modify the VPG name, or leave as is. The copied VPG name appears in this format - <[OriginalVpgName]_Copy_X>.
3. Click NEXT.

The VMs step is displayed.

4. Select the VMs that will be part of this VPG and click the right-pointing arrow to include these VMs in the VPG.
Zerto uses the SCSI protocol. Only virtual machines with disks that support this protocol can be specified.
When using the Search field, you can use the wildcards; * or ?.

Virtual machines that are not yet protected are displayed in the list. A VPG can include virtual machines that are not yet protected and virtual machines that are already protected.

5. Once selected, either click DONE to create the VPG with the pre-populated settings, or click NEXT to review or edit the settings.
