Replacation Datastore location change

Post by dhallam »

Hi this may have been answered before but I cannot find anything specific within the forums.
Also this is not an issue as such just me liking tidy directories.

We have recently upgraded our dr site storage so I would like to do replication alongside our backups. The question is the replication jobs that go to the dr site store all go into the root directory as "servername_replica"
is their anyway for these to go into a folder in the root to make it cleaner so they are all in one separate location. As we do run some other vm's on the dr site, so would like to keep them separate.

Cheers for any help

I guess it depends on the storage. If using NFS you could backup to a datastore that is an additional export of a subfolder of the root.

Hi David,

Each replicated VM has its own folder on the datastore. In the replication job settings you can only select target location on the ESXi host (such RP, VM folder etc.), but not folders on the datastore.

Thanks!
