Provide target vSphere information, select a particular Process Server, retention values and target datastore on the secondary site. Advanced replication settings: Granular replication controls for retention, folder structure, compression, encryption, resource pools and provisioning. Rich monitoring: Deep insight into protection of the infrastructure, including protected workloads, and InMage component health. Detailed views of protection, including RPO, recovery windows, and consistency points. Simple recovery wizard: Select VMs that have been protected, and select the recovery point. This could be the latest consistent point, the very latest crash consistent point, or an older point. Then perform a readiness check to ensure VM can be recovered successfully. VM configuration: If needed, modify VM settings, such as adding CPUs, memory, or changing network configuration. Orchestrated recovery: Granular options to ensure VMs start in a particular Recovery Order. Recovery can be triggered now, or set for later. Multiple VMs can be recovered in batches.

ASR converts VHDX to VHD for failover. On failback, VM continues to use VHDX. The OS partition has to be less than 127G. Azure supports 32 data disks each of up to 1TB. So about 31 TB VM can be supported. ASR supports all the Operating systems supported in Azure, which includes most flavors of Windows and Linux . What about network bandwidth? . ASR supports working with WAN Optimizer Riverbed as well as Express route. Import Export integration coming in CY15. Yes you can use the network throttling on the host MARS (Microsoft Azure Recovery Services) agent to control how much network bandwidth is used for replication. Yes. You can use Express Route to send your replication traffic in a secure and fast manner. However its not mandatory. See here . Its not mandatory
