Martin,
Before I go any further, this is the latest update. After uninstalling SRM at both sites and recreating both databases for SRM and VRMS, I installed SRM at the protected site and was prompted to accept the server thumbprint. Again, when I installed SRM at the recovery site, this did not occur. I know this is a major issue since each side is using a different type of authentication. I am alright with using the server thumbprint, so what would you suggest I have to do to get the recovery site to start prompting for the thumbprint when installing SRM. We have always used self-signed certificates throughout all VMware installations.
