    • Question about Virtualization Site Name?

      When I pull the virtualization site info via the API, it displays SiteIdentifier, VirualizationSiteName.  I’ve noticed that of the eight sites targeting this ZVM, four of them show the name as the site name I have configured, and four of them have the protected vCenter FQDN as the site name despite the fact that they […]

    • Moving VMs between VPGs

      My apologies if this has been covered, but my search didn’t find a previous thread. I need to move VMs between VPGs where the recovery site is Azure.  When I remove VMs from VPGs, it doesn’t prompt me to save the recovery disks so that I can use them for preseeding when adding them to […]

    • Quota Sizing in Azure

      I apologize if I missed any information on this in documentation, but I don’t recall seeing anything other than a region quota of 100 and per family quota of 50.  I’m new to using Azure for recovery, and even with a small environment to recover, I am constantly running into errors trying to test failover […]

    • Analytics Storage

      Analytics recently added a section where you can view storage data for VMs.  I was curious as to when this would be available in the API considering the documentation about the analytics API states: “Zerto Analytics is developed with an API first approach, therefore, everything that is presented in the GUI, is also available with […]

    • ZVM GUI Timeout

      We recently upgraded to 6.5, and are finding that the ZVM screens we keep up and active in our NOC are timing out every hour after the upgrade.  GUI timeout changing was not listed in the release notes, nor can I find a setting for it anywhere.  Is there a setting I’m missing, or a […]

    • Download legacy/historical versions

      I did a quick search of the forums and didn’t see anything, so apologies if this has been discussed before.  There used to be a place to download older versions of the software.  Does anyone know if this still available somewhere? For example, 7.0U3 released a couple days ago, and I need to download 7.0U2 […]

    • Upgrading Zerto Cloud Manager

      I’m encountering an error when trying to upgrade my lab ZCM from 6.5u3 to 7.0u2 about the lack of .NET 4.7.  I’ve been upgrading ZCMs all the way from the 3.5 days and have never seen a ZCM throw this error and/or not include the .NET framework needed (like the ZVM does). Just wanted to […]

    • ZVM GUI Perfomance

      I apologize if this has been approached before, but I didn’t find anything after searching the forums.  We are running Zerto 6.5u4, and in the recent past, perhaps since upgrading to 6.5 or slightly before, I’ve noticed the performance of the Zerto GUI in a browser is very sluggish.  I was wondering if anybody has […]

    • Evacuate Host Question

      I’m currently playing around with Zerto 7 in my lab, and had a question regarding the evacuate host feature.  The feature moves all workloads off of a host to and “balances” the workloads across available hosts.  I know the main purpose of using the feature is to clear a host, but the balance feature is […]

    • Create VPG Using Preseed Data

      Creating VPGs using preseed data support was added to the API in 6.5; I was wondering if anybody has any experience using this feature.  I have a large customer that will I will likely need to rebuild their Zerto deployment due to vCenter upgrades on their side where they cannot preserve the database or the […]

    • VPG Creation, Set volume to thin

      I see there is a section within the VPGSettings API to set volumes as thin when creating a VPG via powershell cmdlts.  However, it appears that it requires a volume ID, which makes sense so it knows which volumes to make thin.  But there’s no API command that will query the volume ID info from […]

    • Issue Moving Data to New Recovery Datastores

      Running v4.5u1, vCenter target.  I need to move recovery data from existing datastores to new datastores on our new storage array.  According to the documentation, once the new datastores are added to the ZORG on the ZCM, I can simply edit the VPG, and change the  “Recovery Volume Location” on the “Storage” tab. I did […]
