Configure Provider vDCs Dialog
Accessed from Site Settings > Cloud Settings tab > Datastore Configuration area.
Used by Zerto Cloud Service Providers to define provider vDCs, and to define which datastores can be used by Zerto, to which purpose.
Datastores which are not listed in this window may be used by Zerto, unless they are explicitly excluded.
To configure access to provider vDCs, and their datastore’s configuration:
1. In the Provider vDCs area (top), click Add. A list of provider vDCs appear.
The provider vDCs were created by the Cloud Service Providers according to predefined service levels, storage availability, performance requirements or cost.
■ Add the provider vDCs which will be available for use in Zerto Virtual Replication.
2. In the Provider Datastore area select one of the following:
■ Unlisted datastores are not used by Zerto Virtual Replication: Clearly define that datastores which are not listed in this window cannot be used.
■ Unlisted datastores can be used for all purposes: Allow unlisted datastores of all provider vDCs, even those provider vDCs that were not added to the list of Provider vDCs can be used for any purpose.
3. In the Provider Datastore area, click Add, to add datastores.
■ Select the Recovery Volume checkbox, if the datastore can be used as a recovery datastore.
■ Select the Journal checkbox if the datastore can be used for the journal.
■ Select the Preseed checkbox if the datastore can be used for preseeded disks. Only datastores marked as preseeded can be used, preventing different organizations being exposed to datastores of other customers using the preseed option.
■ In order to exclude a datastore, add it to the list, then deselect all checkboxes.
