Growing VMDK

Post by fquinnAPT »

Hi All

If I have to grow the VMDK to add more space to partitions ...will this cause an issue with replica jobs?

If we are replicating over slow link and we change the source VMDK will this cause an issue with a VM in a replica job? i.e. will it have to be re seeded?

Thanks

In this case, during the next run replica snapshots (restore points) will be merged in order to reflect disk changes. Thanks.

Hi

I believe I change the VMDK size before and I had issues with the replication job..... it removed the snapshots and the job failed

As I've said, such situations should be handled by VB&R in automatic fashion. If that's not the case, feel free to reach our support team. Thanks.
