4.7.2.1 Automatic or Manual Mapping
Site Recovery Manager automatically maps networks and folders on the protected site to networks and folders on the recovery site that have the same name. This is quite effective where universal objects are defined, such as universal logical switches.
Manual mapping requires manual definition of mappings between objects.
The following figure shows an example inventory mapping between end customer and VMware Cloud Provider data center objects.
