Snapservice. Clusters. Protection Groups Demote$ Task

Snapservice. Clusters. Protection Groups Demote$ Task

Demote the specified protection group. This operation demotes a protection group into a demoted state.

When the protection group goes from an Active state to demoted, all local protection and remote rpelication operations will be paused.

While in this state, there will be no local protection or remote replication operations performed by the system. The protection group goes into a dormant state once the user activates the dormant PG in the remote site.

This operation was added in vSphere API 9.0.0.0.
