Hi, I know that if a VPG contains multiple VMs, you can set a startup order. I have 11 VPGs each containing a single VM. Can I failover these VPGs in a particular order?
When using the GUI, I do not believe there is a way to do that (disclaimer: I’m running 3.5u7 not the newly released v4). However if you script your VPG failovers using the Zerto cmdlts, I don’t see why you couldn’t have logic to do what you’re trying to do, but I’ve never tried it myself.
Hey,
Right now there are 2 ways to do this. They are:
We plan to further address this use case in the GUI with a recovery plan feature in the future. Any further questions let me know. Thanks,
Joshua
Hi Joshua, I tried creating the boot delay on the default folder on each VPG. The first VPG had zero seconds delay, the 2nd VPG had a 30 second delay. I failed them both over at once, but they both powered on at the same time.
