Are there specific steps for testing RP with replicated VMs
I am not a VMware user so I am unfamiliar with how to mount VMs.
Are there specific steps for testing RP with replicated VMs.
I have RP 5.0.P1(d207)
I have run through the recovery menu to test an image but at the "mount copy volumes on host",
I don't know the next steps.

This is referring to mounting the datastore(s) in the ESX cluster.

Download the admin guide and follow the procedure step by step.

Yes, it is regarding how to actually make the replicated LUN available to the host.
We have an EMC VNX 5500 that has the replicated LUNs.
I am not sure how to make it available to the box that will host the VMs.
The admin guide only covers the steps within recover point.

Search for "unmounted" in the RP Admin Guide. If the question is specific to VMware and unmounting the datastores containing the VMs, for the VC Web Client you need to navigate to Storage, select the datastore, right click to choose All vCenter Actions and select unmount datastore. Alternatively, from the vSphere Client you need to navigate to Inventory, Storage and then right click on the datastore and select the unmount option.
