Configuring the replica virtual machine

If you have not done so already, launch the Protect an entire server using a Hyper-V virtual machine workflow.

  1. Replica virtual machine display name—Use the default replica virtual machine name, or enter a new name.
  2. Number of processors—Select the number of processors for the replica virtual machine.

Note:

The Processors on the source server field displays the number of processors on the original source server.

  1. Amount of memory—Enter the amount of memory to use for the replica virtual machine.

Note:

The Memory on the source server field displays the amount of memory (in MB) on the original source server.

  1. Map source IP addresses to target virtual switches—If there are multiple target networks, you can select the network on the target to use.
  2. When you are finished configuring the replica virtual machine, click Next.
