    • Journal Datastore set to Auto

      Is there a way to set the journal datastore to Auto? All of our GUI built VPGs are set to auto. However the API fails when the DatastoreIdentifier is set to anything other than a valid identifier. https://zvm_ip:port/v1/vpgsettings “Journal”: { “DatastoreClusterIdentifier”: “########-####-####-####-############.group-p######”, “DatastoreIdentifier”: null, “Limitation”: { “HardLimitInMB”: 153600, “HardLimitInPercent”: null, “WarningThresholdInMB”: 115200, “WarningThresholdInPercent”: null } […]

    • API: How to modify journal size for VPG and VM

      I have managed to figure out how to modify the VPG settings for “journal size hard limit” and “journal size warning threshold” invoking this URL: https://zvm_ip:port/v1/vpgSettings/{vpgSettingsIdentifier}/journal   However I also need to modify the VM settings for “journal size hard limit” and “journal size warning threshold”.  This URL doesn’t seem to work: https://zvm_ip:port/v1/vpgSettings/{vpgSettingsIdentifier}/vms/{vmIdentifier}/journal   Any […]

    • Change wallpaper script

      Does anyone have a PS script to change the wallpaper for the test failover vm guests vpg’s?  I’m looking to change up the look so the admins know they are working on a different environment as to not be confused with production when working with and testing the failover site and RDP’d into it.

    • Get protected VM details via API (e.g. CPU, etc.)

      Hello all, I need to get detail configurations for protected VMs. Especially vCPU and vRAM information are required. In Zerto these information must exist because it is required for recovery. Unfortunately I was not able to find any information in the documentation.   Best Regards Markus

    • Create Thin Provisioned VPG ?

      I have been automating VPG creation via REST/Powershell since we first implemented at v5.x, and currently at 7.0.  My target datastores are block storage arrays, and until now, I have had no issues since the recovery volumes have been thick provisioned by default.
