Does Azure Migrate discovery have issues detecting ISCSI attached storage for virtual machines?

I have several appliances scanning to discovery servers. The one for discovering SQL servers (physical machines) show all ISCSI attached disks. Virtual machines hosted in Hyper-V that have ISCSI attached disks are not showing. Does anyone know if this is expected behavior, or a bug?

Thanks in advance!

    @Christopher Garry Greetings!

    If the SCSI disk is “not” mounted on the Virtual Machine, it will not be discovered, please ensure that the disks are mounted/ associated with a virtualized guest; it will get discovered as part of guest discovery. Discovery storage available via network or independently is not supported.
