Step 6. Specify SCVMM Server and Cluster

At the Compute and Storage step of the wizard, do the following:

[Applies only if you have selected the System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) option at the Target Connection step of the wizard] Select an SCVMM server that will manage the process of recovering machines to a Microsoft Hyper-V environment. Note that one recovery location can be associated with one SCVMM server only.

For an SCVMM server to be displayed in the list of available servers, the SCVMM console must be installed on the machine that runs Orchestrator, and the server must be connected to Orchestrator as described in section Connecting Microsoft Hyper-V Servers.

Select a cluster or host where the recovered VMs will reside.

For a cluster to be displayed in the list of available clusters, it must be added to Orchestrator as a direct connection or as part of the SCVMM fabric as described in section Connecting Microsoft Hyper-V Servers. For a host to be displayed in the list of available hosts, it must be added to Orchestrator as a direct connection or as part of a cluster as described in section Connecting Microsoft Hyper-V Servers.

Depending on whether you have selected a cluster or a standalone host, click Add and do the following:

To recover VMs to a cluster, choose destination CSV disks where the recovered VMs will be stored. For storage resources to be displayed in the Storage list, these resources must belong to the selected cluster selected.

To recover VMs to a standalone Microsoft Hyper-V host, specify a path to a storage folder where recovered VMs will be stored.
