Virtual machine recovery Site Recovery Manager (SRM) is a VMware disaster recovery solution that automates the recovery of virtual machines during failure states. To enable virtual machine recovery, it is required to configure a recovery plan using SRM. A recovery plan runs predefined recovery steps on selected replication groups. The recovery steps include failover, reprotect, and failover test. A protection group is created on vSphere, that includes one or more replication groups and a recovery plan.

Site Recovery Manager (SRM) is a VMware disaster recovery solution that automates the recovery of virtual machines during
failure states.
To enable virtual machine recovery, it is required to configure a recovery plan using SRM. A recovery plan runs predefined
recovery steps on selected replication groups. The recovery steps include failover, reprotect, and failover test.
A protection group is created on vSphere, that includes one or more replication groups and a recovery plan. If failure occurs, the
SRM runs the recovery plan on the virtual volumes in the replication groups.
