    • Adding VM to vApp already protected by Zerto

      I have a VPG protecting a vApp with 4 VM’s to which I have just added another VM. Will the new VM automatically get added to the VPG, or is there a manual process to be completed? If it is automatic, how long should I expect to wait to see this new VM get added?

      Is there a way to have Zerto NOT use “ZertoRecoveryVMs” in the recovery storage path? C:\ClusterStorage\SANOLUME1\ZertoRecoveryVMs\SERVER1\SERVER1.vhdx I’d rather it just be: C:\ClusterStorage\SANOLUME1\SERVER1\SERVER1.vhdx
