Migrating Protected VM Fails (Powering On Protected VM Is Delayed)

This article applies to all JSDR software versions.

Problem

A JetStream DR protected VM may fail during migration. Or, powering on a JetStream DR protected VM may take an unusually long time.

Solution

Check the following to resolve the problem:

1. Check the DRVA associated with the domain where the virtual machine is being protected to confirm it is operational with no errors reported.
    
   
    
2. Verify the replication log volume is operating correctly. The JetStream UI will display an error warning if a replication log volume is not accessible or has an error.
    
   
    
3. Address any issues discovered in the above steps, then re-try migrating or powering on the VM.
    
4. If the problem persists, contact JetStream Software.

If there are any issues with a DRVA or its associated replication log, it is likely Storage vMotion will fail which may delay or slow powering on protected VMs.
