I am new to vSphere Replication. I have some VMs replicating from our production site to our DR site. My question is when we go to test a DR scenario I will want to turn on the VMs at the DR site and test them. My plan is to bring up the VM, change the name and the IP address, then connect the network and reboot. Will this work, or will I have to use the recovery function?
The primary VMs will have to remain turned on because they are the production servers. I will only need the data from the most recent replication. They are set to a 24 hour rpo.
