• Recoveries with iSCSI, FC, and NFS storage
• Number of virtual machines and protection groups associated with a recovery plan
• Virtual machine to protection group relation
• Recovery site performance in a cluster with DPM and DRS
• Configuration of various recovery plan parameters
• Priority assignment of virtual machines in the recovery plan
• High latency network between protected and recovery sites

Furthermore, best practices are suggested in applicable areas so that you can optimize the recovery time using Site Recovery Manager.
