# Requirements and Limits

Before activating a plan, it is worth reviewing these conditions to avoid surprises. Some of them we confirm with the current platform and are marked.

### Source requirement

> #### 🚧 The source must be in a single zone
>
> You can only protect a subscription whose elements are in a single availability zone.&#x20;
>
> If the subscription distributes resources across multiple zones, it will not appear in the list of possible sources.

### Compatibility

| Aspect            | Detail                                                                                                                          |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Source type       | Server and Remote Desktop subscriptions                                                                                         |
| Operating systems | Broad compatibility target with Windows and Linux systems {/\* TO BE VERIFIED exact scope and whether it requires an agent \*/} |

> #### 🚧 Agent on the machine
>
> It is still to be confirmed whether the source needs an in-machine component or not.&#x20;
>
> The product document describes agentless replication, while an earlier tutorial mentioned updating an agent on older Windows machines. We will clarify this before publishing.

### Known limitations

| Limitation                  | Detail                                                                                                                                        |
| --------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| SSH keys at the destination | After a failover evacuation, the source SSH keys may not appear in the Recovery site panel {/\* TO BE VERIFIED with the current platform \*/} |
| IP failover                 | The IP failover mode is not yet available (coming soon); today failover is via DNS                                                            |

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.plenit.com/docs-en/productos/disaster-recovery/detalles/requirements-and-limits.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
