    • Is it possible to keep custom attributes?

      We are using some custom attributes as well as tags in vCenter to document some details about our VMs.  Is there a way to keep the custom attributes when we fail over?  I’ve checked the Site Settings > Policies > Replication > “For incoming replication, copy the vSphere VM tags to the recovered VM.”  Is […]

    • Is there a way to catch or find storage latency?

      I’m toying around with monitoring Zerto with Powershell using the Zerto API.   We recently had a storage controller have caching issues in our recovery site which caused our VPGs to go in and out of RPO.  Is there a way to find something in Zerto that would be able to show we have storage issues?  […]

    • JSON example for not changing IP, or using DHCP

      We are failing over our VPGs without changing IP addresses, keeping a static IP that has already been configured in the OS.  I had ran a scipt to update all of our VPGs with updated vmware networks, and in doing so I set some NIC settings that shouldn’t be set.  Now I’m curious if I […]

    • One to Many vms not showing virtualizationsites/vm

      In the API, I’ve always used “virtualizationsites/{SITEIDENTIFIER}/vms” to find all of the VMs available to replicate.  Not sure when this occurred, but I noticed on 6.0u2 that this no longer retrieves VMs that would be considered One to Many.  If I pull them up in the web UI I can find the VM in the […]

    • List of VMs replicated on target side ESX hosts

      I’m searching for a way to poll the API to determine which VMs are on which ESX host in the target site.  I’ve looked through the REST API documentation, and the only way I can find to do this is via the vpgSettings/{vpgSettingsIdentifier}/vms API.  My question is, is this an acceptable way to get this […]

    • Creating VPGs using only 1 hour JournalHistory

      I am using Powershell and the API to create lots of VPGs, and am noticing that when I create a VPG and use the setting pasted below, and set $JournalhistoryinHours = 1, it seems we keep an alert set for 24 hours that will never clear.  The Web UI states that the VPG does not […]

    • Need help adding VM to an existing VPG

      I am trying to add new VMs to an existing VPG using the PowerShell Rest API.  We’re running vmware 6.0 and Zerto 5.0.  I’m following the the Zerto Rest API Reference Guide.  I can create the VPG Settings, and poll the vpgsettings/VPGSETTINGSID using a GET method and return the results.   I create the JSON […]

    • Get VRA version and subversion from API

      I’m looking to use a script to upgrade my VRAs from 4.5u1 to 4.5u3.  I’ve updated the ZVMs, and through the web GUI I can see which VRAs are “Outdated.”  Is there a way to find this via the REST API?  If I issue a /v1/vras, the vraversion parameter states 4.5 and not a subversion. […]
