Step 5: Configure Target Replication Host

Choose the Target vCenter Server/ESXi host to which your source VMs data is to be replicated. If your target server is a vCenter Server, select the corresponding ESXi host and the datastore from the drop-down list. If your target server is an ESXi host, select the datastore from the drop-down list.
If you want to add the target VMware Server, click the Add VMware Server option. Provide the IP address of the target VMWare Server and login credentials. If you have configured a different port number for the target server, change the port number manually and click ‘Add’.

Vembu provides you an option to add a suffix name to your Source VM name. This is used to identify the VM in the target server as a replication job. By default, the target VM replica will be given a suffix name as Replica, which can be edited. For example: If your Source VMs name is Vembu and Replica suffix name is Tech then your source VMs data will be replicated into a new VM in the Target Server named ‘Vembu_Tech’.
Select retention count for replicated data, that is the number of replication versions that have to be maintained in the target host. For example: if you configure the retention count to three, then the latest 3 versions of the replication will be maintained. By default, the value is '7'. Click Next to proceed further.
