Configure Storage Replication Adapter for NAS environment
You must configure the storage systems before running Storage Replication Adapter (SRA) for VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager (SRM).
What you will need
You must have installed the following programs on the protected site and the recovery site:
-
SRM
Documentation about installing SRM can be found on the VMware site.
-
SRA
The adapter is installed on SRM and the SRA server.
Steps
-
Verify that the datastores at the protected site contain virtual machines that are registered with vCenter Server.
-
Verify that the ESXi hosts at the protected site have mounted the NFS exports volumes from the storage virtual machine (SVM).
-
Verify that valid addresses such as the IP address, host name, or FQDN on which the NFS exports are present are specified in the NFS Addresses field when using the Array Manager wizard to add arrays to SRM.
-
Use the ping command on each ESXi host at the recovery site to verify that the host has a VMkernel port that can access the IP addresses that are used to serve NFS exports from the SVM.
