Issue/Introduction
Symptoms: When you configure an On-Premises to Cloud replication, the task fails and you see the error: Unable to find an operational replicator from site 'On-Premises Site'.
Environment
VMware Cloud Director Availability 4.x
Cause
This issue occurs when the user used to pair the On-Premises site with the Cloud site is a Cloud Director System Administrator user rather than an Organization Administrator user.
Resolution
This is an expected behavior. It is not supported to pair an On-Premises site with a Cloud site using a Cloud Director System Administrator.
To resolve this issue unpair the On-Premises site and pair it again to the Cloud site using a valid Organization Administrator user.
