Replication setup questions

I have 2 VNXe3200.  One is just a DPE with 25 x 600 GB disk setup with RAID 10 while the 2nd one is a DPE with DAE and fast cache.  This one comes with 32 x 600GB setup as RAID 6 and 6 x 100GB flash setup as RAID 6.  The first one has only one Storage pool.  The 2nd one has 2 Storage Pool, one for the HDD and the other for the SDD with Storage tiering. 

I have 5 VMware Datastore and I like to replicate one of the VMware Datastore on both VNXe.  Is that possible?

My next question is in regards to setup.  SP A and SP B on both unit have 4 port each.  Currently, they are all allocated for ISCSI using 10.10.200.x subnet.  Can I just use the same IP address on Ethernet 2 on both SP A and B for Replication?  Should I just use the same IP address?  Is it better to remove Ethernet 2 from ISCSI and just set it up for Replication?

Thanks for your time and advise.
