Hi everyone!
Nice to be here, it’s my first interaction and I’m having some doutbs regarding virtual lab/data lab configuration with multi-hosts.
I'm implementing VRO in a multi-host environment, but all my knowledge is based on single-host.
We have 2 vCenters with 5 hosts each, one at the source and one at the target (DR), at different sites, and we’ll use virtual labs to test only on the target site (replicas and backup copies).
Replication jobs have mapping and re-ip configured, because the production network at the primary site is (for example) 192.168.5.* and at the DR site it is 192.168.6.*.
VL was configured in target production network (DR Site - 192.168.6.*) and same network was configured in the network mapping as well. VLAN ID we configured one which was not being used. The vDS selected was the one that have all networks available at the target site.
There are no errors in virtual lab tests.
1st question:
This configuration is good enough or I’m making some mistake here?
2nd question:
When I run a surebackup through the VBR, the VM on which I'm going to do the test goes up on the vCenter within the resource pool configured in the virtual lab, but when I use VRO with the same virtual lab and the same VM, to test in data lab, the VM appears in the resource pool by default. Is this a normal behavior?
I hope this was clear enough!
Thank you,
Bruno Teixeira
