Replicate vRPAs to physical RPAs

I am looking for some assistance. I have a remote site that is not being backed up. I would like to utilize vRPAs to replicate the ESXi VMs to a DR site. We have physical RPAs on the DR side. Can the vRPAs replicate to the RPAs? If so, are there any gotchas? Any help will be appreciated...

    Yes no problem with this. Same number of RPAs for each cluster. Virtual to physical is better from a performance perspective.

    Be aware of the spec requirement of the vRPA if sync or deduplication required.

    Regards,

    Agree with Rich, assuming we're talking about classic RP vRPAs to physical RPAs and vice versa (LUN-based replication).

    Classic RP and RP4VMs are two separate products which cannot replicate to one another and different type of clusters cannot co-exist in the same RP/RP4VMs system.

    Hope that helps,
