    • "Setting Validation Failed" in Invoke-RestMethod

      I am using a script to pull the settings of all VM NIC settings, based off the script found here starting on page 16: https://www.zerto.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/Automating-Zerto-Virtual-Replication-with-PowerShell-and-REST-APIs.pdf It mostly works, however I found it was skipping over some VPGs. Digging into it, I found that the problem was occuring here (near the top of page 18): <h6>########################################## […]

    • Post VPG FailoverTest cleanup via API

      I’m building some tools into my company’s intranet web app that will allow running VPG failovers and tests of failovers by making calls to the API behind the scenes.  It’s clear that I would call the VPG test endpoint to start a test: Test VPG https://zvm_ip:port/v1/vpgs/{protectionGroupIdentifier}/failoverTest But it’s not entirely clear what to call when […]

    • Get VPGs by ZORG

      Developer using the Zerto API for the first time.   I’d really like to use the REST API to get a list of VPGs by ZORG identifier.  ZORG ZPI seems limited.  Is there a way to to this other than getting all of the VPGs and then doing the filtering myself after the fact?

    • Export-Settings

      Hi, I’m trying to export all settings from a Zerto 5.0 U1 instalation using the export-settings cmdlet, but receive the following error: Export-Settings : System.ServiceModel.CommunicationException: An error occurred while receiving the HTTP response to http://x.x.x.x:9669/ZvmService/SiteController. This could be due to the service endpoint binding not using the HTTP protocol. This could also be due to […]

    • Export-Settings to local host

      I was wondering if I can have Export-Settings run against 127.0.0.1 9080 or would localhost 9080 work, or does it HAVE to be executed remotely?   For example ; Export-Settings 127.0.0.1 9080 username password > C:\Destination

      From ZVR 5.0 update 3 release notes users may have seen an update to ZVR API which was a security improvement, which may cause some existing scripts now not to function on ZVR 5.0 update 3. This is down to the accept headers set in the scripts. This is a quick and easy fix, first […]

    • PowerShell – Getting Started
