+The `pvesr` command-line tool manages the {PVE} storage replication
framework. Storage replication brings redundancy for guests using
local storage and reduces migration time.
Each replications bandwidth can be limited, to avoid overloading a storage
or server.
-Guests with replication enabled can currently only be migrated offline.
Only changes since the last replication (so-called `deltas`) need to be
transferred if the guest is migrated to a node to which it already is
replicated. This reduces the time needed significantly. The replication
