Configure Multiple Hyper-V Servers to Replicate to Target

Q: Can I replicate the virtual machines on multiple Hyper-V boxes to the same target Hyper-V Replica server?

A: Yes. Although each virtual machine (VM) can have only one replica, and you can't replicate a replica, it's fully supported to have many different Hyper-V servers replicating VMs to the same Hyper-V target, as shown below.

The only consideration would be what would happen if all the boxes replicating to the target failed and whether that single target starting all the VMs replicated to it could do so with acceptable performance.
