Why each option
vSphere Replication supports a maximum of 24 multiple point-in-time (MPIT) snapshot instances, allowing recovery to 24 distinct historical states of a virtual machine.
16 snapshot instances is below the actual supported maximum of 24 and would unnecessarily limit point-in-time recovery options.
vSphere Replication's Multiple Point In Time (MPIT) feature allows up to 24 snapshot instances to be retained per replicated virtual machine. These instances represent historical recovery points and allow granular RPO-based recovery. Configuring more than 24 instances is not supported by the product.
48 instances exceeds the product's supported maximum of 24 MPIT snapshot instances for vSphere Replication.
72 instances far exceeds the supported maximum of 24 MPIT snapshot instances and is not a valid configuration option.
