You must ensure that the logical server is associated with SAN based storage. 2. A logical server must have been activated at least once. 3. An operating system and applications must be installed on a logical server. Logical servers that meet these conditions appear in the Available LS(s) list in the Local Site Matrix For sites with a large number of logical servers, partitioning logical servers into portability groups associated with logical servers on both the Local Site and the Remote Site be limited to a subset of virtual →Menus & screens →Manage portability groups in the HP Matrix OE Visualization and Logical Servers online help. NOTE: You cannot change the datastore of a VM hosted logical server while it is being managed by Matrix recovery management. To change the datastore, first remove the VM hosted logical “Setting up Storage” (page 10) , and “ Setting up Remote Site logical servers” (page 16) to re-add the logical server to the Matrix recovery management configuration.
