Create Replication in Enhanced Mode

  • 1.  Create Replication in Enhanced Mode

    Posted Dec 02, 2025 01:35 PM

    Hi,

    I've been using the following code to create a virtual machine replication:

    $ReplicationSpec = Initialize-VrConfigureReplicationSpec `
	-Rpo 60 `
	-NetworkCompressionEnabled:$false `
	-MpitEnabled:$false `
	-AutoReplicateNewDisks:$true `
	-LwdEncryptionEnabled:$false `
	-VmDataSetsReplicationEnabled:$true `
	-Disks $ReplicationHDDs `
	-TargetVcId $Pairing.LocalVcServer.Id `
	-VmId $RepVM.List[0].Id
$ReplicationTask = Invoke-VrConfigureReplication -PairingId $PairingID -ConfigureReplicationSpec $ReplicationSpec -Server $VRServer

    Since upgrading vSphere Replication from 8.7 to 9.0.2.2, I've tweaked the above to enable encryption:

    -LwdEncryptionEnabled:$true

    But the replication is still created in Legacy mode and I have to changed it to enhanced mode via the web front:

    • Reconfigure > select Enhanced mode

    Is there a way to create a virtual machine replication in Enhanced mode via PowerCLI?

    I'm currently using:

    • PowerCLI 13.3.0.24145083
    • VMware.Sdk.Vr 13.3.0.24145081

    Thanks.
