Hello!

If you just need to get rid of the replica VM in your vSphere environment, you can use the Delete from disk command in vSphere Client to completely remove it. Note, that in this case your replication job will fail its next run.

If you want to find out the reason of the failure, feel free to contact our technical support with job logs, so that they are able to investigate the issue promptly.

Thanks!

If the replica is listed under the Replicas node, you can right-click the record and select the Delete from Disk command to perform this.

There is no delete option in VMlist name.
Delete option only available in Files List.

If I delete the files list, will this also delete the VM_relica name?

To delete VM replicas you need to navigate to Backup & Replication tab -> Replicas node -> select VM replica name on the right pane, then right-click on it and choose to "Remove from disk option" (see our User Guide, page 262). Alternatively, you can select Files view -> expand the corresponding vCenter Server infrastructure and then hit a "Delete" button on the VM replica folder.
