Step 3: Set up inventory mapping
Inventory mappings establish recovery site defaults for the virtual machine folders, networks, and resource
pools to which recovered virtual machines are assigned. You create these mappings at the protected site, and
they apply to all virtual machines in all protection groups at that site.
Inventory mappings are optional, but recommended. They provide a convenient way to specify how
resources at the protected site are mapped to resources at the recovery site. These mappings are applied to
all members of a protection group when the group is created, and can be reapplied as needed (for example,
when new members are added). If you do not create them, you must specify mappings individually for each
inventory mappings for networks, folders, and resource pools. You do not need to specify inventory mappings
for resources that are not used by protected virtual machines.
Procedure

Figure 14: Configure inventory mappings
The Inventory Mappings page displays a tree of resources at the protected site and a corresponding tree of
resources at the recovery site. For any protected site resource that does not have an inventory mapping, the
corresponding item in the recovery site tree is listed as None Selected.
