asr-temp-nic - asr-temp-nsg - asr-temp-vnet and asr-temp-vm resources created during Hyper-V VM Azure Migrate from on-prem to Azure

Question

Hi,

I post this question because I didn't find Microsoft Azure documentation that explain why 4 resources are created during Hyper-V VM Azure Migrate from on-prem to Azure.

These 4 resources are created during Azure Migrate process and then deleted when the on-prem VM is halted and the Azure migated VM is up and running

asr-temp-nic - asr-temp-nsg - asr-temp-vnet and asr-temp-vm

Maybe this is a sort of temporary resources to make sure the last sync is well performed during the Azure migrate process?

Could you please let me know if someone has a link to MS Azure documentation that explain this ?

Best regards,
Charfeddine

Answer 1

@Charfeddine LAOUINI Those Resources are created as part of migration so that ASR/Migrate prepare the OS from source VM so it boots properly when final VM is created on Azure.

Those 4 resources are for the temp VM that is created to perform that operation.

You can see this link - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/migrate/prepare-for-agentless-migration#hydration-process

Although the article is not Hyper-V specific, the methodology is the same.

Hope this answers your question!
