Support matrix for disaster recovery of on-premises Hyper-V VMs to Azure

This article summarizes the supported components and settings for disaster recovery of on-premises Hyper-V VMs to Azure by using Azure Site Recovery.

Note

Site Recovery does not move or store customer data out of the target region, in which disaster recovery has been setup for the source machines. Customers may select a Recovery Services Vault from a different region if they so choose. The Recovery Services Vault contains metadata but no actual customer data.

Supported scenarios

Scenario Details
Hyper-V with Virtual Machine Manager

You can perform disaster recovery to Azure for VMs running on Hyper-V hosts that are managed in the System Center Virtual Machine Manager fabric.

You can deploy this scenario in the Azure portal or by using PowerShell.

When Hyper-V hosts are managed by Virtual Machine Manager, you also can perform disaster recovery to a secondary on-premises site. To learn more about this scenario, read this tutorial.
Hyper-V without Virtual Machine Manager You can perform disaster recovery to Azure for VMs running on Hyper-V hosts that aren't managed by Virtual Machine Manager.

You can deploy this scenario in the Azure portal or by using PowerShell.

Note

Configuring both Azure Backup and Azure Site Recovery on the same Hyper-V host can cause issue with replication and is not supported.

On-premises servers

Server Requirements Details
Hyper-V (running without Virtual Machine Manager) Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2012 R2 with latest updates

Note: Server core installations of these operating systems are also supported.
If you have already configured Windows Server 2012 R2 with/or SCVMM 2012 R2 with Azure Site Recovery and plan to upgrade the OS, please follow the guidance documentation.
Hyper-V (running with Virtual Machine Manager) Virtual Machine Manager 2022 (Server core not supported), Virtual Machine Manager 2019, Virtual Machine Manager 2016, Virtual Machine Manager 2012 R2

Note: Server core installations of these operating systems are also supported.
If Virtual Machine Manager is used, Windows Server 2019 hosts should be managed in Virtual Machine Manager 2019. Similarly, Windows Server 2016 hosts should be managed in Virtual Machine Manager 2016.

Note

Ensure that .NET Framework 4.6.2 or higher is present on the on-premises server.

Replicated VMs

The following table summarizes VM support. Site Recovery supports any workloads running on a supported operating system.

Component Details
VM configuration VMs that replicate to Azure must meet Azure requirements.
Guest operating system Any guest OS supported for Azure..

Windows Server 2016 Nano Server isn't supported.

VM/Disk management

Action Details
Resize disk on replicated Hyper-V VM Not supported. Disable replication, make the change, and then re-enable replication for the VM.
Add disk on replicated Hyper-V VM Not supported. Disable replication, make the change, and then re-enable replication for the VM.
Change disk ID on replication Hyper-V VM Not supported. If you change the disk ID, it impacts the replication and will show the disk as "Not Protected".
