2V0-621 · Question #96
VMware vSphere Replication protects virtual machines from partial or complete site failures by replicating the virtual machines between which three sites? (Choose three.)
The correct answer is A. From a source site to a target site. B. From within a single site from one cluster to another. C. From multiple source sites to a shared remote target site. vSphere Replication officially supports three topologies: standard source-to-target, intra-site cluster-to-cluster, and multiple source sites converging on a shared remote target.

Why each option
vSphere Replication officially supports three topologies: standard source-to-target, intra-site cluster-to-cluster, and multiple source sites converging on a shared remote target.
Standard source-to-target replication is the foundational vSphere Replication topology, where VMs at a primary site are continuously replicated to a recovery site managed by a vSphere Replication Appliance.
vSphere Replication supports intra-site replication, allowing VMs to replicate from one cluster to a separate cluster within the same physical location, protecting against cluster-level failures.
The fan-in topology is a supported configuration where multiple geographically distributed source sites replicate into a single shared remote target site, consolidating recovery resources.
vSphere Replication does not support a fan-out topology where a single source site replicates to multiple independent remote targets simultaneously.
Replicating from multiple source sites to multiple distinct remote target sites is not a supported vSphere Replication deployment topology.
Concept tested: vSphere Replication supported site replication topologies
