Hi Scot,
Thank you for reaching out with your question on the Q&A portal. I appreciate you sharing the details of your issue with the Azure Migrate appliance and the validation failure during discovery.
Based on your description, it seems like you’ve already taken several troubleshooting steps, such as verifying connectivity, checking firewall settings, and ensuring proper name resolution via the hosts file. Since the error persists, I’d recommend double-checking the following:
- Ensure the domain administrator account has the necessary permissions on all Hyper-V hosts and the cluster. Sometimes, even if the account is a domain admin, certain local permissions might be required.
Verify that WinRM is properly configured and accessible from the Azure Migrate appliance to all cluster nodes. You might want to test WinRM connectivity manually using Test-WSMan
from the appliance to each host.
Check the Azure Migrate appliance logs for more detailed error messages. The logs are typically located under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft Azure\Logs and may provide additional clues.

If you’re still facing issues, feel free to provide any additional error logs or details, and I’d be happy to help further.
Best regards,
