Hello there.
Are any plans on bringing Surebackup's Startup Options capability to start a VM with specific amount (%) of RAM from a recovery plan.
We use the capability at Backup and Replication and it works great but now we are moving to Recovery Orchestrator and we'd like to use the capability there.
Regards

Re: VM Startup Options for Recovery Plans
Hi Daniel
No active plans as far as I know.
But I share your request with the product manager for Recovery Orchestrator.
May I ask, why do you want to configure specific amount of RAM for testing "Recovery Plans"?
I assume, when you need to recover everything and you run your "Recovery Plan", your target hardware should be able to provide the same amount of RAM as the original hardware.
Or you would have to manually reconfigure every machine. Which makes automated recovery less automated.
Thank you,
Fabian

Re: VM Startup Options for Recovery Plans
Thank you Fabian.
Reason would be for testing and verification purposes mainly. (This is very easy to achieve in VBR/Surebackup/App Group/DataLab)
We believe orchestrator's capabilities are way broader than just recovering to our main DR Site where we indeed have enough resources to recover the whole infrastructure.
One use case could be having several recovery locations and use them for different purposes, different recovery scenarios, testing only core applications, performing security audits and so on. Sometimes those recovery locations may have limited resources and thus, capabilities like the one I'm talking about are useful.
Also, I don't see why I would have to manually reconfigure every machine when I can easily automate that, maybe I'm just not getting your point here.
Anyways, we know it's not available now.
