Accessing the Zerto User Interface
You manage the protection and replication of virtual machines in vSphere, between the protected and recovery sites, using the Zerto User Interface. On first access to the user interface, you might have to add a security certificate to set up secure communication. Zerto also provides a set of RESTful APIs and PowerShell cmdlets to enable incorporating some of the disaster recovery functionality within scripts or programs.
You manage the protection and replication of virtual machines between the protected and recovery sites, using one of the following:
■ The Zerto Virtual Manager Web Client.
■ The vSphere Web Client.
■ The vSphere Client console.
Note: Microsoft Windows Explorer 9 is not supported and version 10 does not work well with the user interface. Zerto recommends using Chrome, Firefox, or later versions of Internet Explorer.
Note: It is required to exclude the Zerto Virtual Replication folder from antivirus scanning. Failure to do so may lead to the ZVR folder being incorrectly identified as a threat and in some circumstances corrupt the ZVR folder.
