Move the vm replica to another host

Post by JosueM »

good day everyone.

we have veeam 11 and moved the replica VM of a working job using vsphere migrate cuz the original host failed. vm replica size is about 6TB.

after the move we created a new replication job and set the vm feed to the moved vm then the job failed saying the snapshots were not in sync, so we deleted all the snapshots on the replica vm and restarted the replication job but it tooks about 38 hours and the percent was at about 35% and the production VM started to hang so we had to cancel the replica job.

is there way to still use the vm replica as feed in a way the job finish in proper time or would be better to create totally new replication job from scratch?

Thanks in advance.

thanks for reply ronnmartin61:

from the above link: "the replication job calculates the differences between the original and mapped VM" it could be there were the replication job just hangs.

I think it will be better to create new replication from scratch
