Replicating a Snapshot
Click a snapshot in the Applications Console to replicate a snapshot to a different host.
About this task
Replication copies a snapshot's data from PMem on a source host to PMem on a target host. The snapshot's metadata is copied to the target host's Memory Machine data directory. See Snapshot Replication.
Important: Memory Machine does not
support capturing and restoring snapshots on hosts with different OS versions.
This includes replicating or exporting a snapshot to a different host as well as
upgrading the OS on a host between capturing and restoring a snapshot.
