Description¶

The Connect-DRSolutionTovCenter cmdlet registers Site Recovery Manager or vSphere Replication with a vCenter Server. The cmdlet connects to SDDC Manager using the -server, -user, and -password:

Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to the SDDC Manager instance
Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to the vCenter Server instance
Validates that network connectivity and authentication is possible to the vSphere Replication or Site Recovery Manager instance
Validates if the solution has already been registered and if not proceeds with the registration

Examples¶

Example 1¶

Connect-DRSolutionTovCenter -server sfo-vcf01.sfo.rainpole.io -user administrator@vsphere.local -pass VMw@re1! -domain sfo-m01 -applianceFqdn sfo-m01-srm01/sfo.rainpole.io -vamiAdminPassword VMw@re1! -siteName SFO-M01 -adminEmail "srm-administrator@rainpole.io" -solution SRM

This example registers Site Recovery Manager with the vCenter Server of the Management Domain.
