I am replicating VM's to a VCC provider with DR (VMware) so that I can failover VM's to the cloud. Replication has been working fine and test failovers complete successfully.
I have just completed my first planned failover to cloud (partial, only 1 VM) to the VCC provider and everything worked as expected on failover and connectivity using NEA. I then ran a failback, which worked fine, but I need some help understand a couple things as highlighted in this screenshot:
I don't understand how 14GB of changes occurred (2nd highlight). The VM itself only consumes about 24GB on disk (as thin provisioned) in its entirety and only changes I directly made while the replica was booted was logging in via console and creating a text file not he desktop. The first highlight seemed like a more appropriate size for changes made to the replica that needed to be replicated back to on-prem. This VM was only failed over for maybe 30 minutes while I did basic connectivity testing.
It seems like almost the entire VM was replicated back to on-prem on failback, is this normal? I did not use "Quick Rollback" option during failback--if I used that would I see different behavior?

Re: Data transferred on replication failback
Hello,
It's not clear from the screenshot if there was really 14 Gb processed or just inaccurate value is displayed in statistics window. Could you please raise a support request and share the case ID with us?
Thanks!
