Enter the following information for the target server:
•
IP address or DNS Name—Enter the IP address or DNS name of the VMware server that will provide a
backup for your source virtual machine. Or, click the
Browse button to browse VirtualCenter to locate a
server. In the
Select server window, browse through the file tree on the left side to select a target server.
When you select a server, the right pane is populated with information about the virtual machines,
datastores, and networks associated with that server. After you have found the target server, select it in the
left pane, then click
Choose.
•
User name—Enter the user name for the account you will be using to log on to the target server.
•
Password—Enter the password that is associated with the user account.
NOTE: If there is a pre-existing virtual machine on the target ESX server with same filename and directory
structure as the source virtual machine that you are protecting, the protection job will overwrite the target
virtual machine if it is on the same datastore.
After all fields have been completed, click Next. A window will display the progress as the Storage Mirroring
for Virtual Infrastructure console authenticates the target server.
