Using ASR across multiple subscriptions

My Recovery Services Vault is setup on our primary EA subscription, but I would like to replicate some VMs into our MSDN subscription for test/dev purposes. I want to avoid creating a separate configuration server  on premise or even a seperate Recovery services vault. Is this possible?

  • Hi Eric,

     

    I know you can do this with Hyper-V and VMM if you consider the environment has a multi-tenant one.

    Jeff Graves explains how in this blog: http://jeffgraves.me/2016/05/03/multi-tenant-azure-site-recovery-e2a-using-virtual-machine-manager/

     

    Unfortunately, I haven't found any information or seen it done myself with VMWare without the use of a separate configuration server/process server.

     

    That being said, you will always need to create a separate recovery vault in each of the subscription has these cannot span across multiple ones.

     

    Cheers,

    Stephane
