2.3. Enable Sync Proxy to synchronize network access policies to vCenter and all ESXi hosts managed by vCenter. 
 *
  • The Sync Proxy node accesses the vCenter API interface for authentication and retrieves data by calling the ESXi host where the VMs of the disaster recovery production site are located. Therefore, network access policies need to be configured to allow access to all ESXi hosts managed by vCenter.
  • This step is not mandatory during the initial preparation phase, but please ensure it is completed before the start of DR.

3. Huawei Cloud Pre-Configurations
  • Please ensure that all steps in this section have been completed before proceeding to the next steps.
3.1. Set up Huawei Cloud IAM disaster recovery account. 
 *
  • Create a Huawei Cloud IAM account according to the documentation, allocate the necessary permissions, and provide the corresponding Access Key ID and Access Secret Key.
  • Note: The Huawei Cloud IAM account is used to invoke API interfaces of the target cloud during disaster recovery (such as creating access to cloud resources and storing disaster recovery data). When setting up the IAM account, download the corresponding Access Key and Access Secret Key. Please send the account information along with the AK/SK via email.

3.2. Huawei Cloud Quota Check. 
 *
  • Verify the remaining resource quotas under the Huawei Cloud account according to the documentation.
  • Note: During the disaster recovery process, it is crucial to ensure that the remaining resource quotas in the cloud account are sufficient to support data synchronization and disaster recovery. To prevent potential failure due to insufficient quotas during disaster recovery, it is necessary to perform a resource quota check before initiating the disaster recovery. If the remaining resource quotas in the Huawei Cloud account are insufficient, clean up unnecessary resources in the account or apply for an expansion of Huawei Cloud resource quotas.

3.15. Configure cross-VPC network access between the disaster recovery VPC and the business VPC. 
 *
  • During Huawei Cloud disaster recovery, when a disaster recovery host needs to be restored to the planned production business VPC, it is necessary to configure a cross-VPC peering connection in Huawei Cloud. This involves setting up a peering connection between the disaster recovery VPC and the business VPC, and adding peering connection routes. This configuration is primarily used during disaster recovery to allow the HyperBDR in the disaster recovery VPC to access the business VPC through the intranet and recover virtual machines for data recovery.
  • If all disaster recovery hosts of a customer need to be restored in different business VPCs planned in Huawei Cloud and there is a requirement for cross-VPC access, it is necessary to configure peering connections between the business VPCs. This ensures that after the subsequent business recovery, normal cross-VPC business interactions can take place.
  • This step is not mandatory during the initial preparation phase, but please ensure it is completed before the start of DR.
