Azure Site Recovery Setup - On-Prem Physical Servers Options Greyed Out - No Passphrase

Hello,

Deployed and in the middle of setting up ASR appliance for VMware/physical machines. I am using physical machines option - but whatever option selected - it has option greyed out. I have rebuild but issue remains and have issue. If you skip past it (to setup later) and have it register to Azure - it works. But have issue with getting physical machines to replicate even after installing Windows agent for passphrase. Appliance does not have /home folder and no passphrase during setup. So no machines are replicating to appliance. Any help?

    @Cody Jones - Sorry for the inconvenience caused!

    I noticed that you have mentioned that 'setting up ASR and the option for physical servers is grayed out'. Could you please check if you are using Preview Appliance or Classic Appliance, it should not be a problem with Classic but the one in preview only works with VMWare and not physical.

    I have answered a similar question here - https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/issues/87143

    Hope this helps!
