Represents the available providers for replication.
The following syntax is simplified from MOF code and includes these inherited properties.

class Msvm_ReplicationProvider : CIM_ManagedSystemElement
{
string InstanceID;
string Caption;

Properties
The Msvm_ReplicationProvider class has these properties.
-
Caption
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: MaxLen (64)
A short description of the object. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement. For this object, the value is:
"Replication Provider"
-
-
Description
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
A description of the object. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement. For external providers, the value is provided by them. For host to host inbuilt provider, the value is:
"Virtual machine replication provider to Hyper-V host"
-
-
ElementName
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
A display name for the endpoint provider. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement.
For host to host inbuilt provider, this property is always set to:
"Virtual machine replication provider to Hyper-V host"
-
-
InstanceID
-
-
Data type: string
-
Access type: Read-only
-
Qualifiers: Key, MaxLen (256)
The WMI instance ID, which identifies the provider. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedElement. The format of this property is "Microsoft:<host-machine-name>\ReplicationProvider\<provider-Name>."
-
-
Name
-
The globally unique identifier (GUID) of the provider that identifies the endpoint provider. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement.
In the case of an external provider, this property is the CLSID of the provider COM class object. For host to host inbuilt provider, this property is fixed as:
"22391CDC-272C-4DDF-BA88-9BEFB1A0975C"
-
OperationalStatus
-
-
Data type: uint16 array
-
Access type: Read-only
The current statuses of the object. This property is inherited from CIM_ManagedSystemElement, and each array element is always set to:
-
S_OK (2)
-
Remarks
You can use any of available providers and the Msvm_ReplicationRelationship class to enable a replication relationship. Hyper-V by default chooses the inbuilt host to host provider, which can be changed while creating the replication. Hyper-V management service communicates with an external provider by using COM.
