A cloud administrator needs to deploy the vSphere Replication virtual appliance and the Site Recovery manager virtual appliance when protecting a VMware Cloud on AWS software-defined data center (SDDC) with VMware Site Recovery.
The vSphere Replication virtual appliance is responsible for replicating the virtual machines from the source to the target site. Site Recovery Manager virtual appliance acts as the central management and orchestration platform for the entire disaster recovery process.
[Reference: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Site-Recovery/index.html, , In order to protect a VMware Cloud on AWS software-defined data center (SDDC) with VMware Site Recovery [1][2], a cloud administrator needs to take the following two steps:, A) Deploy the vSphere Replication virtual appliance - This can be done by logging into the vSphere Client, navigating to the vCenter Server, and then selecting the Deploy OVF Template option. From here, the cloud administrator can upload the OVF template for the vSphere Replication appliance and configure it., B) Connect the Site Recovery manager instance on the protected recovery site - This involves logging into the Site Recovery Manager (SRM) and setting up the connection between the protected recovery site and the SRM instance. This can be done by going to the SRM dashboard and then selecting the Connect Remote Site option., References:, [1] https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Site-Recovery/services/vmc-dr-deployment/GUID-DBF6CD69-6F7E-47E2-9417-91D5C5F5AC5E.html, [2] https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Site-Recovery/services/vmc-dr-deployment/GUID-1C8B7BCA-D4BE-4EAF-9A8A-4B42E2B7236A.html, , ]
