Azure migrate Server last updated time

Question

Azure migrate Server last updated time

Bombbe 1,466

Hi,
why do servers "last update time" change so rarely?

We have tens of servers which have last updates almost few weeks ago (agent has been installed maybe few mouths ago). Replication has not been started on them yet, agents has been only installed. What has to be happen so that last update time changes or how often it changes? If replication has been started it will change often.

Could you please provide more details about the screenshot and the question in specific?

Hello.

Screenshot has been taken from Azure Migrate -> Servers -> Migration tools -> Azure Migrate: Server Migration -> Discovered servers and there is then "Last updated time" column. Most of my servers in that list are last updated about two weeks ago so i'm just wondering how often they update status to Azure migrate if replication has not been started yet. Or do configuration of servers has to been changed so that last update time changes etc?

@Bombbe That view only updates if you force a manual refresh or if configurations for the server change (for example more ram is added or a disk is added/removed).

You can do manual refresh from Azure portal: Azure Migrate – Server Assessment -> Overview -> Appliances -> Select the Appliance Name -> Refresh Agent link

Looks like those servers had no changes since November 20th.

To clarify it is related to discovery of VM configuration and nothing to do with replication. <To check replication here is where you should go

Let us know if above makes sense.

Hi, thanks for answer. Is is possible to force manual refresh from Azure Portal / Azure migrate or has it to be done in Server side (appliance or discovered VM) ?
