Description
A SRM Shared Recovery Site Configuration consists of multiple SRM instances connecting to the same vCenter instance.
In a SRM Shared Recovery Site Configuration:
-
Each SRM server needs to have a dedicated SRA instance (1:1 relationship between SRM and SRA)
- You can accomplish this by configuring OTV in VCF mode to act as a dedicated SRA instance for each SRM server
- You can also have a non-SRA enabled OTV appliance deployed that is registered with vCenter and used for non-SRA tasks such as datastore provisioning
