    @Moonlight Thank you for reaching out to us. Yes, after the migration is complete you can delete the storage accounts. However ensure that you aren't using the storage account for anything other than migration.

    Hope this information helps, please feel free to revert back if you have any other queries. Thank you.

    Hi @Moonlight , was this an agent-based or agentless migration?

    The following Storage accounts are created by default during the (agentless) process.
    I recommend using storage explorer to enumerate storage account content and ensure they are no longer required prior to deletion.

    Also make sure to follow the migration completion steps including right-clicking the VM > Stop Replication.. this stops replication for the on-premises machine, and cleans up replication state information for the VM.

    Also be sure to review & follow the applicable post-migration best practices:

    1. Agent-based best practices
    2. Agent-less best practices.
