Schedule protection start time

By default, Storage Mirroring for Virtual Infrastructure starts the initial synchronization of a protection

immediately after the protection is created.

If you want to specify a date and time in the future at which the initial synchronization will be started, click the

Schedule button at the top of the window. The Configure protection start time window will appear.

Select the

Schedule this protection to start option, then click the drop-down field to select a date from the

calendar. Click on the time in the field to modify the start time.

If a job has not yet started, you can use this window to reschedule the job start time, cancel a future start time,

or prompt for the job to start immediately.

Change protection set name

The protection set name is a unique name that you can enter to identify the protected virtual machine and the

target server with which it is associated. By default, the protection set is named

to <target server name>

Click the

Change button in the Name area. The Change name window will appear.

Enter a name for the protection job. You might want to name it something like “source vm name to target”.

When you are finished, click

Save.
