n
Clone a virtual machine: A virtual machine in the org virtual data center can be cloned to create a seed
vApp. vSphere Replication calculates checksum and exchanges the different blocks from the replication
source to the seed vApp.
n
Copy over the network: A source virtual machine can be copied to the cloud organization by using
means other than vSphere Replication to copy the initial source data to the target site.
NOTE The size and number of disks, and their assignment to disk controllers and bus nodes must match
between the replication source and the seed virtual machine. For example, if the replication source machine
has two disks of 2 GB each, one of them assigned to SCSI controller 0 at bus number 0, and the second one
assigned to SCSI controller 1 at bus number 2, the seed vApp that you use must have exactly the same
hardware configuration - 2 disks of 2 GB each, at SCSI 0:0 and at SCSI 1:2.
