How to seed a large volume

    We have a 2TB data drive that we are about to add to one of the servers that is replicated with Zerto. Instead of adding it to the server at our primary site and letting it replicate over the WAN, I’d like to send a USB to our DR site and have it seeded there so only the changes during transit of the USB will need to be sent. Is this possible?

    Hi Gilad,

    Yes, this is possible.

    However, your USB must of course be large enough. The only caveat is not to expand the disk sizes after the USB is sent.

    Thank you,

    Is there documentation on how to do this step by step?
