    Manages a Azure Site Recovery protection container. Protection containers serve as containers for replicated VMs and belong to a single region / recovery fabric. Protection containers can contain more than one replicated VM. To replicate a VM, a container must exist in both the source and target Azure regions.

    Example Usage

    using Pulumi;
    using Azure = Pulumi.Azure;
    
    class MyStack : Stack
    {
        public MyStack()
        {

            });
            var secondary = new Azure.Core.ResourceGroup("secondary", new Azure.Core.ResourceGroupArgs
            {
                Location = "East US",

    Import

    Site Recovery Protection Containers can be imported using the resource id, e.g.

     $ pulumi import azure:siterecovery/protectionContainer:ProtectionContainer mycontainer /subscriptions/00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000/resourceGroups/resource-group-name/providers/Microsoft.RecoveryServices/vaults/recovery-vault-name/replicationFabrics/fabric-name/replicationProtectionContainers/protection-container-name
