Cloud Endure gives us the ability to replicate machines from our data center to AWS ensuring that the VM's are up-to-date with one another before the live cut-over.
Follow the Below steps to start replicating a VM:
1.) Log into CloudEndure
2.) Click Setup and Info
3.) Click Other Settings and scroll down to the Installation Token and click "How to add machines".
4.) Open the virtual machine that you are wanting to replicate.
5.) Right Click on Download the Agent Installer for Windows and click Copy Link Address
6.) Paste the URL that you copied in a browser and download that .exe file.
7.) Open an elevated command prompt
8.) Navigate to the downloads directory and copy / past the command in the screenshot in step 5
9.) This will take a few minutes as it will establish communication with the agent and pull disks on the VM that will be replicated.
10.) Once the above step has been completed, the VM will exist in Cloud Endure.
11.) Open the VM in Cloud Endure and click "Blueprint"
* The Subnet and Security Group must be updated to what is used in AWS
* The Private IP needs to be change to custom and then an IP needs to be assigned (use the same last octet as what is currently used)
* Change Public IP to "No"
* Click "Save"
12.) Click "Replication Settings"
* Instance Type needs to be set to T2.medium
* Subnet and Security Groups need to be set to what is used for your AWS environment
* Staging Area Disks needs to be set to "Use slower, low cost standard data disks"
* c:0 needs to be set to "Use General Purpose SSD"
* Click "Save"
13.) Once you have completed the above changes, the VM should start replicating.
