SRM 5.1: Rename Datastores Back to Original Name

When running a failover recovery or test with SRM the datastores in use get their original name with a prefix like “snap-xxxxxxxx-<original_name>”. If you prefer to have just the original datastore name you can.

In previous versions you had to navigate on the SRM server to vmware-dr.xml and change the fixRecoveredDatastoreNames from false to true. In SRM 5.1 you can set this in the advanced settings. Simply right click on the recovery site and select “Advanced Settings”. Select storageProvider and check the “storageProvider.fixRecoveredDatastoreNames” checkbox:

Click OK to save the setting. When you run a failover recovery or test now the original name will be used.
