Configuring the VirtualCenter operation timeout

You can configure a single timeout value to be used for all VirtualCenter operations. By

default, the value is 90 minutes.

1. Stop all protection jobs.

2. Change the default value of 90 minutes in the DefaultJob.xml file:

<PropertyItem Name="RetriableOpTimeoutMin" Access="PUBLIC"

Permission="READWRITE">

</PropertyItem>

3. Restart your protection jobs.

Configuring auto-restart delay

You can use set an auto-restart delay to add a delay (in minutes) to how long SMRVI will

wait when trying to auto-restart a failed protection job.

1. Stop all protection jobs.

2. Change the default value in the DefaultJob.xml file:

<PropertyItem Name="AutorestartSleepMinutes"

Access="PUBLIC" Permission="READWRITE">

</PropertyItem>

Note:

This property should be added at the end of the property list, but before the

</ArrayOfPropertyItem> tag.

3. Restart your protection jobs.

Configuring hibernation for a protection job

You can set up hibernation for a protection job, which allocates a time period in which

SMRVI will “pause” the protection jobs that are running. Hibernation allows you to

provide a window where other applications can use snapshots. The hibernation time

range is set by adding HibernationTimeStart and HibernationTimeStop

properties to the DefaultJob.xml file.

Note:

These properties should be added at the end of the property list, but before the

</ArrayOfPropertyItem> tag.

The following example sets a hibernation period from 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM.
