Apply Inventory Mappings to All Members of an Array-Based,
Virtual Volumes
, or
vSphere Replication
 Protection Group

If the protection status of an array-based,
Virtual Volumes
, or
vSphere Replication
 protection group is
Not Configured
, you can configure protection for all the unconfigured virtual machines by using existing site-wide inventory mappings.
The status of a protection group can be
Not Configured
 for several reasons:
  • You did not configure site-wide inventory mappings before you created the protection group.
  • You did not configure placeholder datastore mappings before you created the protection group.
  • You added virtual machines to a protection group after you created it.
  • Virtual machines lost their protection, possibly because you reconfigured them after you added them to a protection group. For example, you added or removed virtual disks or devices.
