Apply IP Customization Rules to a Virtual Machine

You can apply an IP customization rule to the recovery settings of a protected virtual machine.
For the list of guest operating systems for which
Site Recovery Manager
 supports an IP customization, see the
Compatibility Matrices for Site Recovery Manager 8.8
 at https://docs.vmware.com/en/Site-Recovery-Manager/8.8/rn/compatibility-matrices-for-vmware-site-recovery-manager-88/index.html.
When you apply an IP customization rule, you specify a single subnet IP mapping rule for each network mapping.
If you set the advanced setting option
recovery.useIpMapperAutomatically
 to True and configure the IP mapping rule for virtual networks, then
Site Recovery Manager
 evaluates the subnet IP mapping rules during the recovery to customize the virtual machines. If you set this option to False,
Site Recovery Manager
 does not evaluate the IP mapping rules during a recovery. You can override the effect of this option for each virtual machine by using the
IP Customization
 option.
The
recovery.useIpMapperAutomatically
 default option is True. If you set it to Auto,
Site Recovery Manager
 customizes the virtual machine by using the IP Customization rule.
