Edit VM Dialog

Edit the replication settings for a particular virtual machine in a VPG.

• Recovery Host: The cluster, resource pool, or host that will host the recovered virtual machine. If the site is defined in Zerto Cloud Manager, only a resource pool can be specified and the resource pool must also have been defined in Zerto Cloud Manager. For details about Zerto Cloud Manager, see Zerto Cloud Manager Administration Guide.

When a resource pool is specified, Zerto checks that the resource pool capacity is enough for the specified virtual machine.

• Journal Size Warning Threshold: The size of the journal that triggers a warning that the journal is nearing its hard limit.
• Size (GB): The maximum journal size in GB.
• Percentage: The percentage of the virtual machine volume size the journal can grow to.
• Journal Size Hard Limit: The maximum size that the journal can grow, either as a percentage or a fixed amount. The minimum journal size set by Zerto is 8GB. The journal is always thin-provisioned.
• Unlimited: The size of the journal is unlimited and it can grow to the size of the recovery datastore.
• Size (GB): The size in GB that will generate a warning.
• Percentage: The percentage of the virtual machine volume size that will generate a warning.

Both the value of Size and Percentage must be less than the configured hard limit so that the warning will be generated when needed. In addition to the warning threshold, Zerto will issue a message when the free space available for the journal is almost full.
