Stop replication failed
I have a Azure Migrate: Migration and modernization | Replications where the migration has failed. I tried to stop the replication to create a new migration job but am now getting stop replication failed with the error below. I have checked the vault but cannot see any protected objects.
Error message
Protection could not be disabled for the machine 'MACHINENAME'.
Possible causes
Check the failed Disable Protection job for more information.
Recommendation
Resolve the issue, disable protection on the machine again.
Hi cmadavis ,
you can follow these steps to address the issue:
- Check Requirements: Ensure that the physical machine meets the necessary requirements for migration.
- Restart Virtual Machine: Restart the Virtual Machine to allow the Mobility agent to respond and communicate with your Recovery Services Vault.
- Uninstall Mobility Agent: If the restart doesn’t resolve the issue, uninstall the Mobility agent from the machine, unprotect the machine, and then re-protect it.
I hope this helps. Feel free to reach out if you have any further questions!

Matthias

Matthias-Braun thanks Matthias. Oddly the failed stop replication job has now vanished and if I try to replicate I get an error to say my appliance is out of date. I will therefore redeploy the appliance.
- cmadavisCopper ContributorI have not removed or recreated the replication.
