At this point, the source DS-Client has performed replication for an offline VM replication set: The Source DS‑Client has saved the initial replication data of the source virtual machine as a folder to a specified local disk location on the source DS-Client machine. To replicate the source virtual machine to the destination server, the destination DS-Client needs to import the initial VM replication data from a local disk location on the destination DS-Client machine.

You need to perform the steps in “Copying the initial replication data” and then “Importing the Initial VMR set”.
