    • vSAN Storage Policy change

      I noticed that there is no option to change the vSAN storage policy when replicating to vSAN.  It accepts the default storage policy.  As I am replicating some large VMs and space will be a little tight, rather than migrate –> cutover –> change policy from mirroring to erasure coding, can I just locate the […]
