Azure Resource Mover

Question

Use of Azure resource Mover to move resource from one region to another region, few questions related to the same.

1. What are the impacts to source region resources , while Initiate moving process is running ? Will it impact the existing resource and the operation ?
2. Assume 7 -10 Petabyte of stateful data to move from one region to another how much time does it required to move from one region to another region ?
3. Assume stateful data are moving from one region to another, during stateful data movement do we need stop resources in Source Region to initiate the move, If answer is NO, how to manage risk of delta data during/after the movement.
4. I do see there is cost associated with moving stateful data, where can I find cost estimation related to the same ?

Please see the snippet below:

Assume 7 -10 Petabyte of stateful data to move from one region to another how much time does it required to move from one region to another region ?
Depends on different factors such as: Network bandwidth, amount of data, type of workload etc.

Assume stateful data are moving from one region to another, during stateful data movement do we need stop resources in Source Region to initiate the move, If answer is NO, how to manage risk of delta data during/after the movement.
Replication happens continuously from source region to target region. The VM will be shutdown for a brief time. However, latest data will be available in the destination region.

I do see there is cost associated with moving stateful data, where can I find cost estimation related to the same ?
Azure Resource Mover is available at no additional charge. However, you may incur charges associated with the move: Network Bandwidth costs, Egress or Outbound data transfer costs, Temporary resources costs and Fixed costs.
