Hi Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A. According to azure this seems to be a normal behaviour. Are you still facing issues? A move request is allowed a maximum of four hours to complete. To prevent modifications on the resources being moved, both the source and destination resource groups are locked during the resource move. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/move-resource-group-and-subscription#frequently-asked-questions Please 'Upvote'(Thumbs-up) and 'Accept' as answer if the reply was helpful.

Hi @Vinodh247 ,thanks for the reply.

The resources were critical for us, and I initiated the resource migration at 9 AM IST. However, I'm still encountering the same issue. Normally, the migration process only takes 10-20 minutes. I'll wait a few more minutes and update you on the status here.

Okay. I just assume you have had all the checks before you started moving the resources. Can you confirm with the below checklist? esp., point 1 & 4.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/move-resource-group-and-subscription#checklist-before-moving-resources

according to azure below is not supported for VM movement, I am placing the link here as well... pls check this too.

Scenarios not supported The following scenarios aren't yet supported:

Virtual Machine Scale Sets with Standard SKU Load Balancer or Standard SKU Public IP can't be moved.

Virtual machines in an existing virtual network can be moved to a new subscription only when the virtual network and all of its dependent resources are also moved.

Virtual machines created from Marketplace resources with plans attached can't be moved across subscriptions. For a potential workaround, see Virtual machines with Marketplace plans.

Low-priority virtual machines and low-priority virtual machine scale sets can't be moved across resource groups or subscriptions.

Virtual machines in an availability set can't be moved individually.

@Vinodh247 ,Thank you for the replies. Despite the moving process taking more than 4 hours, it has finally succeeded. I really appreciate your attention to this issue. You're a lifesaver!!
