# Disaster Recovery Protection Summary

> [!NOTE]
> For Expedient Clients with DRaaS
> 
> Expedient will create polices during deployment, but Prism Central maintains an option for self-service and administration.

To view the status of your protected VMs, go to **Data Protection** > **Protection Summary**

In the top righthand corner, you can see an overall total of protected entities and any recovery point creation or replication not meeting your set RPO schedule. You can also change the timeframe to as low as 12 hours and as much as 1-week.

Expedient will work to resolve any failures, but you can view the status of your recovery plans in a 1 or 3-month range and details on any entities that have not met their RPO (between 12 hours and 1 week).
