  • Good day everyone !
    Hyper-V to VMware cross replication Failover Test failed
    Zerto version: 7.5 U4 patch 1 build 075416018
    VM source: Centos 7 (Hyper-V)
    VM test recovery: Centos 7 but guest OS show oracle linux I changed it to centos 7 same error (vmware)

    it wont boot and it come to Dracut emergency Shell.

    entering Emergency mode. exit the shell to continue

    type “journalctl’ to view system logs

    Hi,

    This is Kalsang from Zerto.

    Are you sure the guest OS is not oracle linux? If yes, I suggest opening a support ticket for it.

    Best regards,

    Hi simon,

    I have same issue in ZVR 7.0.

    This KB is helpful for me, perhaps for you.
