Hello,

I configured Hyper-v Replica in Windows Server 2019 and it was working without problem.
It just failed some days ago but its only because of the need to increase space.

Besides of it, i wanted to try the test failover (with the last replications) but the option in the replica server does not appear as you can see bellow.

Do i need to enable something to do the test?

    Hi André Barradas,

    Please see if you can run Test-VMReplicationConnection cmdlet in PowerShell. The Test-VMReplicationConnection cmdlet tests the connection between a primary server and a Replica server to determine whether replication can be enabled for virtual machines on the primary server to the specified Replica server.

    Best Regards,

    Ian Xue
