vSphere ZVM 10.x and ZCA on AWS/Azure, same REST paths. HVM is out (separate swagger). Failover Live is not a tool.
Tagged checkpoints cannot be inserted when the **protected** site is Azure or AWS (Zerto API). Point this server at the vSphere protected ZVM.
Tagged checkpoints **do** work when the protected site is Azure or AWS. The 9.0 API
reference says they cannot be inserted; that is wrong on 10.9.10, where both were
accepted and the task reached `Completed`.
What differs is latency and granularity, both set by the **protected** site:
| protected at | journal gap | tag visible after |
|---|---|---|
| vSphere | 5s | ~4s |
| Azure | 60s | ~34s |
| AWS | 630s | ~128s |
The tagged checkpoint is also stamped about 30s *after* the insert request, so on a
cloud-protected VPG a prompt mutation can land *inside* the checkpoint meant to
precede it. Recover from the newest checkpoint that already existed when the guard
ran, not from the tag.
