Discovery Source - Validation Failed

Question

I'm running the Appliance Configuration Manager in a VM with the VHD provided. It passes the prerequisites and registers with Azure Migrate, but on item 3 step 2 to add a discovery source I get a "Validation Failed" status with detail listed as "This operating system type is not supported". The hypervisor is Windows Server 2012.

Any ideas of what is going on?

Answer 1

Hello @Danilo Andrade Sorry for the inconvenience this must have caused!

The server has to be "Windows Server 2012 R2". See the documentation here - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/migrate/tutorial-discover-hyper-v#prepare-hyper-v-hosts

For older than 2012R2 you can use "Physical machines" migration. It doesn't matter that they are virtual machines.
