Protecting an ESX server to an ESX server
Use this process to protect a virtual machine on an ESX server, where you want to
protect the host-level virtual disk files (the .vmdk files), to a virtual server on an ESX
server. In this scenario, you have several steps to complete.
1. Port configuration —You must configure your ESX servers, your VirtualCenter
server(s), and the machine running the Storage Mirroring Recover for Virtual
Infrastructure service. These steps only need to be performed once.
2. Root or non-root login configuration —You must configure your ESX servers for
either root or non-root login. These steps only need to be performed once.
3. Establish protection —Use these instructions to configure your ESX to ESX
protection job.
4. Optional ESX protection settings —Optional settings can be configured at the end
of your protection job creation or after the job has been established.
