Password-Protected Storage Arrays
If your environment implements password security on the storage arrays, the SraConfigurationData.xml file must be
modified to prompt for storage array password.
To modify the files:
1. Edit the SraConfigurationData.xml file available at C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\VMware vCenter Site Recovery
Manager\storage\sra\Dell\config\SraConfigurationData.xml
2. Locate the <PasswordRequiredForArrayAccess> tag.
3. Change the default value of false to true.
4. Save the file changes.
NOTE: All storage arrays must utilize the same security measures. If one storage array has a password set,
then the peer storage array must also have the password set. SRA does not support Mixed authentication
mode.

NVSRAM Settings
SRM test failover requires a change to the default NVSRAM settings on the MD storage array. During test failover,
snapshots are created on the recovery site's storage array which is then mapped to the default host group and the ESX/
ESXi host group.
To change the NVSRAM settings:
1. Start MD Storage Manager on your storage array.
2. From the Enterprise Management Window (EMW), select Tools → Execute Script.
