Azure Management Groups

Copper Contributor

I want to move an entire subscription to a different management group. There are multiple resources in the subscription. Mainly, the subscription contains VMs, VNETs and other related resources where they are used for Active Directory architecture. These are mainly domain controllers. 

 

Please suggest, if I want to move this subscription and others subscriptions dedicated mainly for Active Directory, what are the pros and cons of having this. What will be the impact to resources in terms of Active Directory architecture and downtime?

you can select the resources and then hit the option move it will do the pre-checks and move the resources . it is always a good idea to check the checklist outlined below and the move support resouces .

Keep in mind the user access permission as an example if B is the owner of the subscriopn x , and A is the owner of the subscription Y then when you are moving resouces from Subscription X-Y check for right permission to avoide inheritance also check the vnet peering and firewall rules if you have to change . Since the VNET IP range is per environment I guess you will not have any issues but there might be change in resouces ID
