protectionGroupId

enableReverseReplication

boolean | null

If this is specifed as true, then reverse replication of failover objects will be enabled from replication cluster to source cluster. If source cluster is not reachable, then replications will fail until source cluster comes up again. Here orchastrator should also ensure that storage domain on replication cluster is correctly mapped to the same storage domain on the source cluster.

doNotProtect
