vSphere Replication support for FIPS

1. vSphere Replication and vRO and vROps mgmt packs now support FIPS (SRM did in 8.4)

2. Now when a replicated disks storage policy is changed when reconfiguring replication, the target replica’s storage will change as well

3. Additional metrics (Average disk read latency & Replication Network Latency) are now available through the vCenter reporting tool. Both at the VM and host level of the source. Additionally, there are other target site metrics available through the logs at the target site for now.

4. 5. All UIs were upgraded to the latest version of Clarity

6. The datagrids in the UI have been redesigned to show more data with clusters with multiple datastores

vSphere Replication and Site Recovery Manager both now interoperate with LWD (less than 4 hr RPO replication engine used by VCDR (DRaaS for VMC on AWS). If a VM is protected by VCDR SRM & VR will throw errors if it is protected/replicated
