Enabling Replication to the Same Site

When a single vCenter is used, for example with remote branch offices, when replicating from one datacenter to another datacenter, both managed by the same vCenter Server, you have to enable replication to the same vCenter Server and pairing is not required. In this case, replication to the same vCenter must be set in the Site Settings dialog.

To enable replication to the same vCenter Server:

1.

In the Zerto User Interface, click SETTING () in the top right of the header and select Site Settings.

The Site Settings dialog is displayed, with the default tab, Site Information, open.

2.

Click the tab Policies.

3.

Select the checkbox Enable Replication to Self.

4.

Click APPLY or SAVE.

The Zerto Virtual Manager, when used to protect to itself, can manage the protection of up to 5000 virtual machines.
