Step 6: Reprotect the VMs from On-Premises to HI GIO Cloud

Overview

After migrating over the workload to On-Premises, we can reverse the replication and reprotect it back to the HI GIO Cloud site.

Once reprotect is successful, this will show as outgoing replication from On-Premises to the Cloud.
