    • Exclude large volume from replication

      We have a few vm’s with very large volumes attached (in the 2TB range) and would like to protect the OS drive but not the cache drive(s). Is there a way to set up a VPG so that it excludes these drives? Setting them as Temp still causes the VPG to want to do an […]

    • VRA VM overrides – auto power on?

      We are upgrading most of our infra from vSphere 6.0x to 6.5u1. One of the inconsistencies is whether VRA’s will automatically power on after the host comes back online.  We are on Zerto 5.5u2p1. Most of our clusters all have VM Overrides set for each VRA to Disable both DRS automation and HA restart priority […]

    • Z-VRA’s not powering down for host maintenance

      When trying to remediate my ESXi hosts using Lifecycle Manager, the VRA’s are not powering down to allow the hosts to go into maintenance mode.  If I manually place the host into maintenance mode, they power off.  Anyone know a fix? vCenter – 7.0.3 Zerto – 9.0. U4

    • MSCS shared fail over disk protection

      Hello, I have an MSCS with a shared disk,  configured on a VMWare VVOL using Pure as our backend storage. (similar to the way RDM was used to create shared disks).  Will Zerto protect my cluster?  I was told the RDM method of cluster shared disk was not supported. Thanks, Rob Bell

    • DRS moving VMs to host before VRA is online

      When we perform host maintenance, protected VMs are being moved to the hosts via DRS before the VRA is fully online.  This is causing up to 2 hour delta syncs to happen before we can move on to the next host. Is there a way to prevent VMs from moving until the VRA is ready?
