Protect a VM or datastore with Remote Snapshots

To protect a datastore or VM with Remote Snapshots, you can add a Copy Policy with Remote Snapshot rules. Remote Snapshots are supported only at a group-level consistency. When protecting Remote Copy Group and HPE Nimble Storage Volume Collection, RMC-V internally creates two Protection Groups (local and remote) with all the datastores in the Remote Copy Group or Volume Collection. The local and remote Protection Groups are created with the same name as the Remote Copy Group.

Use the Protection Group page or alternatively, use the Add Protection action on one of the datastores in the Remote Copy Group or Volume Collection.
