Prerequisites for RRP

Note. RRP requirements apply to both RRP jobs and Full with RRP jobs. In the latter case, RRP requirements must be met since RRP is used transparently in the background.

• For general virtualization considerations and requirements, see Creating VMs with Full Virtualization or Instant Virtualization.

• The Catalogic DPX client to virtualize must be running a supported operating system. See Operating System Support.

• A VM created with Instant Virtualization or Agentless Instant VM Restore must already exist.

• For Microsoft Windows Full Virtualization with RRP (Full with RRP), the radio button Align virtual machine file system on the Virtual Machine Information screen of the virtualization wizard, must be selected. For Linux or Clustered Data ONTAP volumes less than 2 TB in size, the file system will always be aligned and the radio button does not appear.

Attention! RRP with the NetApp Clustered Data ONTAP supports the source volume size of up to 2 TB. To use the RRP with a source volume that exceeds 2 TB in size, use the Bare Metal Recovery (BMR). For more information, see Bare Metal Recovery.
