### Does Site Recovery work with Capacity Reservation?
329+
330+
Yes, you can create a Capacity Reservation for your VM SKU in the disaster recovery region and/or zone, and configure it in the Compute properties of the Target VM. Once done, site recovery will use the earmarked capacity for the failover. [Learn more](https://aka.ms/on-demand-capacity-reservations-docs).

332+
### Why should I reserve capacity using Capacity Reservation at the destination location?
333+
334+
While Site Recovery team makes a best effort to ensure that capacity is available, we do not guarantee the same. Site Recovery's best effort is backed by a 2-hour RTO SLA. But if you require further assurance and _guaranteed compute capacity,_ then we recommend you to purchase [Capacity Reservations](https://aka.ms/on-demand-ca.pacity-reservations-docs)
