I was facing configuration issue with Site Recovery Manager (SRM) for my customers, I often configure some advanced settings that let me avoid cosmetic errors or recovery failure.

This topic is cover those advanced settings to change advanced settings using vsphere or web client.

Note: By design, during an upgrade, SRM does not retain any advanced settings that you configured in the previous installation. Some advanced settings may require unprotect VM and protect it again because its apply only to virtual machines that you protect after you changed the settings. Please always follow documentation to a SRM version that you configure as VMware likes adding or changing some advanced settings.
