[Feature Request] Planned Failover concurrent processing

Post by thynes »

We've recently had to move a large subset of VMs between Datacentres and vCentres and we're leveraging Replication jobs and the "Planned Failover" method to cut the VMs over. However we've noticed that when attemtping to move more than 1 VM at a time it processes each VM independantlly not as a group. This has the affect of a lot of waiting for the same replication job syncing prior and after shutdown before moving onto the next VM.
Some logic to process selected VMs conncurrently in the same job would help speed up these processes significantly.
We already had these VMs in failover plans, if it was possible to enact a different failover process like a Planned Failover using the plans this would also eleminate some time in terms of select which VMs we wanted to cut over when.
