  1. Sign up for a FREE CloudEndure account https://aws.amazon.com/cloudendure-migration/.
  2. Once you are registered, you will be able to sign into the CloudEndure User Console.
  3. Once signed in, you will need to create a new Project.
  4. Once your project is set up you will need to create an Access Key in AWS which you will enter into the CloudEndure User Console for programmatic access.
  5. Once your credentials have been set up, you will need to define the replication settings for AWS. This includes selecting the replication server instance type and subnet where the replication server will be launched.
  6. Install the CloudEndure Agent on source vVol VM.

    Note: Select only the root or boot vVol for replication with CloudEndure. See Agent Installation Requirements and Agent Installation Instructions for detailed guidance.

    All VM attached vVol data disks will be replicated from your on-prem FlashArray to Everpure Cloud Dedicated directly before being attached to the EC2 initiator via in-guest iSCSI. This will preserve dedup on the wire to minimize data transfer upload.
