After export/import several VMs from 2012r2 to 2022 and upgrading the configuration the Site Recovery is not recognising the new location of the VMs to continue with the replication to Azure. The new server is associated to the same hyper-v site as the previous server and it recognises there are VMs available to back up

    Apologies for delayed response.

    Yes, your understanding is correct. The OS versions of all the servers within the cluster needs to be the same. For now, you need to start from scratch to set up ASR. Doc ref: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/site-recovery/hyper-v-azure-support-matrix#on-premises-servers
