Monitoring a Single VPG
You can monitor the status of a specific VPG by clicking the VPG name in the VPGs tab or clicking the VPG name in the VMs tab. The VPG details are displayed in a dynamic tab.
General Tab
The tab on the left side shows the status of the VPG. The following information is displayed in this tab:
Performance Graphs
The current VPG performance, which includes the following information:
RPO: The current Recovery Point Objective (RPO) of the Virtual Protection Group (VPG).
IOPS (I/O per second): The total amount of I/O write operations generated by the protected virtual machines comprising the Virtual Protection Group (VPG).
Throughput (MB per Second): The total amount of uncompressed data written by the protected virtual machines comprising the Virtual Protection Group (VPG).
During synchronization processes (such as bitmap sync, initial sync and delta sync) this value will also consist of the uncompressed data read from the protected disks..
WAN Traffic (MB per second): The total amount of compressed data transferred between the protected and recovery sites of the Virtual Protection Group (VPG).
JOURNAL HISTORY
The journal history shows:
■ The SLA defined for the VPG.
■ The amount of time currently covered by information in the journal.
■ The earliest—oldest—checkpoint currently in the journal that can be used for a recovery operation.
OFFSITE BACKUP
If backup is enabled, the following backup details are displayed:
Retention Policy: Whether the VPG is protected against a disaster only with the ability to recover to a point in time up to 30 days before the disaster, or protection is extended to include offsite backups of the virtual machines, going back for a maximum of one year.
Backup Status: The status of the backup.
Backup Repository: The name of the repository where the jobs are stored.
Restore Point Range: The restore points for the backup jobs out of the total backup jobs run for the VPG.
Backup Scheduling: The schedule for offsite backups.
ACTIVE ALERTS, RUNNING TASKS, and EVENTS
A listing of the currently active alerts and running tasks, and the events run during the last few hours.
User input, for example, stopping a failover test or committing or rolling back a Move or Failover operation, can be initiated from the relevant task displayed in the RUNNING TASKS section.
PROTECTED VMs Tab
The PROTECTED VMs tab shows details about the protected virtual machines:
Name: The name of the virtual machine.
Group: The boot order group to which the virtual machine belongs.
Protection Host: The protected virtual machine host.
Storage Protected: The name of the protected storage.
Provisioned: The protected virtual machine provisioned storage.
Used: The amount of data used on the recovery site for this virtual machine.
Recovery Data Size: The total size of the data on the recovery site.
Failover Network: The failover network used when recovering this virtual machine.
Test Network: The test network used when testing the recovery of this virtual machine.
The following details are displayed with a vSphere recovery site:
Recovery Host: The host to use for recovery.
VM Recovery Datastore: The name of the recovery datastore.
Folder: The folder where the virtual machine is recovered to.
The following details are displayed with a Hyper-V recovery site:
Recovery Host: The host to use for recovery.
VM Recovery Storage: The name of the recovery storage.
The following details are displayed with an AWS recovery site:
Failover/Move VPC: The virtual network dedicated to your AWS account during a failover or move operation. A security group and subnet must be assigned to this VPC.
Failover/Move Subnet: The subnet mask for the VPC network during a failover or move operation.
Failover/Move Security Groups: The AWS security to be associated with the virtual machines in this VPG during a failover or move operation.
Test VPC: The virtual network dedicated to your AWS account during a failover test operation. A security group and subnet must be assigned to this VPC.
Test Subnet: The subnet mask for the VPC network during a failover test operation.
Test Security Groups: The AWS security to be associated with the virtual machines in this VPG. during a failover test operation.
Folder: The folder where the virtual machine is recovered to.
SITES Tab
The SITES tab shows the topology of the VPG, including both the protected and recovery sites.
SETTINGS Tab
The SETTINGS tab shows details about the VPG settings, divided into general, replication, recovery, and backup categories.
