I currently use SRM 5 in a production capacity with our EMC RecoverPoint appliance, but want to start using vSphere Replication for mid-tier systems. As I understand it, vSphere Replication uses the Management Network to transfer VMs from the protected site to the recovery site. I have concerns about saturating the link between sites, so I want to use NIOC on a vDS. My primary Management Network is on a vSS, but I want to create a secondary vmkernel port on a new vDS for vSphere Replication. Is there a way to force this traffic to a specific vmkernel port if you have several? How does ESXi know which one to use?
