Replicating VMs with vSphere Native Key Provider TPM

Post by unsichtbarre »

So I just did a Google/forums search and didn't really find anything definitive. If I need to replicate VMs which have TPM and NKP from VCSA "Acme" to VCSA "Beta," is it as simple as transferring the NKP backup to Beta and restoring it if failover is needed?

THX,

Hello,
as far as I see, you don't need any restore of the native key provider because encrypted VMs are decrypted at source and then encrypted again at the target.

Best regards,
Hannes
