   Notes

   • Re-IP Rules enabled for replication jobs are only stubs for failover jobs. They do not work at the replication stage.

   • Re-IP rules that are enabled for your replication job can be used for creating the corresponding failover jobs. Refer to Failover Job Wizard for VMware: Re-IP for details.
