Replication APIs

Replication APIs

Describes APIs for monitoring and managing virtual machine replication.

Operations

Get All Replications

Get a list of all the incoming or outgoing replications from a vCenter Server.

Configure Replication

Configure replication for a virtual machine from a source site to a target vCenter Server site.

Get Replications Count

Get the total number of replications - both incoming and outgoing.

Get Replications Issues

Get a list of all the current issues for all incoming or outgoing replications.

Get Replication Info

Get information about the replication.

Destroy Replication

Delete replication of a VM. The operation deletes the replication only on the local site. Remove the replication configuration first.

Run a cleanup test recovery for a given replication.

Demote Test Image

Demote a test image.

Pause Replication

Pause the replication for a virtual machine from the source site to a remote vCenter Server site.

Promote Test Image

Promote a test image.

Reconfigure Replication

Change the settings of a replication, including reconfiguring a replication on new virtual hard disks and enabling the default seed disk to use a replica disk in the VM folder.

Run Disaster Recovery

Run a disaster recovery for a given replication.

Resume Replication

Resume a paused replication to the target vCenter Server site.

Sync Replication

Sync the latest changes for a virtual machine with a configured replication to the target vCenter Server site.

Run a test recovery for a given replication.

Unconfigure Replication

Gracefully remove the replication configuration of a VM. If the remote site is not available, use DELETE /replications/{replication_id} to delete the replication from the local site.

Get Active Replication Image

Get a details about the active replication image (point in time replica) for a given replication.

Get Replicated Vm Disks

Retrieve information about the disks of a replicated VM.

Get All Point In Time Instances

Get a list of all available consistent replicas (point in time instances) for a given replication.

Get Point In Time Instance

Get a specific consistent replica (point in time instance) for a given replication.

Get Vr Capable Target Datastores

Retrieve vSphere Replication supported datastores.

Browse Datastore

Browse the datastore that is defined in the URL by its ID. This API returns files that reside on the given datastore. These files are filtered based on the given search criteria.

Get Seeds For Disks

Retrieve information about possible seeds for a given set of disks.

Get Vc Storage Policies

Retrieve vCenter Server's storage policies.

Check Storage Policy Compliance

Check datastores for compliance against a given storage policy.

Get a list of all VMs on the vCenter Server specified by vCenter Server ID in the URL.

Get Vm Capability

Retrieve vSphere Replication capability information about a given VM.

Get Local Vm Disks

Retrieve information about the disks of a VM.
