Invalid Storage Account
I’m trying to migrate a Resource Group across subscriptions but one VM in particular throws up this error The Move Resources request contains VMs which are associated with invalid storage accounts. Please check details for these resource ids and referenced storage account names. (Code: MoveResourcesHaveInvalidState, Target: Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines) Storage Account 'storageaccountname' either does not exist or is in an invalid state. (Code: MoveResourcesHaveInvalidState, Target: /subscriptions/subscriptionID/resourceGroups/RGName/providers/Microsoft.Compute/virtualMachines/ The referenced storage account does not exist and I have cycled the options on the boot diagnostic storage account to no avail
Migrating Windows Server from 'Hybrid Azure AD Join' to 'Entra ID Join (Cloud-Only)'
Hi everyone, I need help with a scenario where I’m looking to move a server ( non DC ) from Microsoft Entra Hybrid Joined to cloud only (Entra ID) Joined only. The goal is to stop relying on the on-premises AD domain and make the server authenticate only through cloud-based accounts (Azure AD accounts). I’d appreciate any guidance, documentation or best practices on how to properly handle this migration while ensuring minimal disruption. Has anyone done this transition before? What steps and considerations should I be aware of in terms of network configuration, Cost.... etc? Thanks in advance for your help!
Trouble Installing Microsoft Site Recovery - Process Server Service Keeps Terminating
Hey everyone, I'm in the middle of migrating our on-premise servers to the Azure cloud, and I've hit a snag that I can't seem to get past. I'm at the step where I need to install the Microsoft Site Recovery agent on our appliance, but I'm stuck on the last part—validating the server configuration. Every time I run the installer, it fails during the validation step. At the same time, I've noticed that the "Process Server" service keeps getting terminated, and I'm unable to enable it again. Has anyone encountered this issue before? Any tips on how to get past this, or what might be causing the Process Server service to keep failing? I'm really stuck here and could use some advice! Thanks in advance for any help.
Migration of Exchange environment from On Prem to Azure
As cloud first approach, we are trying to migrate our on prem mail servers to Azure(We are not planning for O365 as of now for these email domains as of now). Due to lack of PaaS options is Azure as of now, best way will be to decommission the current on prem Infra including all the internal and external email servers. But as Port25 is disabled by default, can anybody suggest any tested and secured way to construct a High Available B2B Email infrastructure in Microsoft Azure? Please note, we will still be using the current on prem Internet and Intranet Domains for this Infra and we will have the On Prem Network and domain extension to Azure Subscription.
Azure VMs migration from one tenant to another
Hi Community, I have a task to move/migrate Azure VMs from subscription on one Azure tenant to subscription on another Azure tenant. Moving the subscription is not an option. I think I can treat the VMs as "Physical or other" and use Azure Migrate with an appliance. Is there any another way? Can I treat is as Hyper-V to Azure Migration? Will I need an appliance server for discovery and replication? Regards VenelinDigital event: The Future of VMware Is in Azure – July 16th, 2024

We're in the process of shutting down the on-premises setup of our company environment running on VMware. We have a DC, SQL server, accounting server and a couple terminal servers used for remote access. I have created the necessary Azure migration assessment and ready to start the replication of the 1st batch of servers. Because we have a legacy custom SQL app, we must maintain standard Windows AD, so I'll be moving our DC virtual machine. Azure AD will not work thus the need to migrate our on-prem DC. My question is replicating and copying our on-prem domain controller from VMware up to Azure but keeping it running following the replication migration up to Azure. I know the normal process of replication is to shutdown the running on-prem VMs once the final delta replication has completed. However, I need to keep my on-prem AD environment running for about another month as I build the Azure environment in parallel. I understand that the two environments will not be in-sync if new domain users are created but this likely will not need to occur with the small size of the company. Basically, does the Azure migration process allow us to keep the migrated VMs running following the final replication sync? I'll do this replication during non-production hours so network activity will be zero. Thanks for any suggestions or input. Ken
