Support matrix for Azure VM disaster recovery between Azure regions

This article summarizes support and prerequisites for disaster recovery of Azure VMs from one Azure region to another, using the Azure Site Recovery service.

Deployment method support

Deployment Support
Azure portal Supported.
PowerShell Supported. Learn more
REST API Supported.
CLI Not currently supported.

Resource move/migrate support

Resource action Details
Move vaults across resource groups Not supported.
Move compute/storage/network resources across resource groups Not supported.

If you move a VM or associated components such as storage/network after the VM is replicating, you need to disable and then re-enable replication for the VM.
Replicate Azure VMs from one subscription to another for disaster recovery Supported within the same Microsoft Entra tenant.
Migrate VMs across regions within supported geographical clusters (within and across subscriptions) Supported within the same Microsoft Entra tenant.
Migrate VMs within the same region Not supported.
Azure Dedicated Hosts Not supported.

Region support

Azure Site Recovery allows you to perform global disaster recovery. You can replicate and recover VMs between any two Azure regions in the world. If you have concerns around data sovereignty, you may choose to limit replication within your specific geographic cluster.

See here to find details on the various geographic clusters supported.

Note

  • Support for restricted Regions reserved for in-country/region disaster recovery: Switzerland West reserved for Switzerland North, France South reserved for France Central, Norway West for Norway East customers, JIO India Central for JIO India West customers, Brazil Southeast for Brazil South customers, South Africa West for South Africa North customers, Germany North for Germany West Central customers, UAE Central for UAE North customers.

    To use restricted regions as your primary or recovery region, get yourselves allowlisted by raising a request here for both source and target subscriptions.

  • For Brazil South, you can replicate and fail over to these regions: Brazil Southeast, South Central US, West Central US, East US, East US 2, West US, West US 2, and North Central US.

  • Brazil South can only be used as a source region from which VMs can replicate using Site Recovery. It can't act as a target region. Note that if you fail over from Brazil South as a source region to a target, failback to Brazil South from the target region is supported. Brazil Southeast can only be used as a target region.

  • If the region in which you want to create a vault doesn't show, make sure your subscription has access to create resources in that region.

  • If you can't see a region within a geographic cluster when you enable replication, make sure your subscription has permissions to create VMs in that region.

  • New Zealand is only supported as a source or target region for Site Recovery Azure to Azure. However, creating recovery services vault is not supported in New Zealand.

Cache storage

This table summarizes support for the cache storage account used by Site Recovery during replication.

Setting Support Details
General purpose V2 storage accounts (Hot and Cool tier) Supported Usage of GPv2 is recommended because GPv1 doesn't support ZRS (Zonal Redundant Storage).
Premium storage Supported Use Premium Block Blob storage accounts to get High Churn support. For more information, see Azure VM Disaster Recovery - High Churn Support.
Region Same region as virtual machine Cache storage account should be in the same region as the virtual machine being protected.
Subscription Can be different from source virtual machines Cache storage account need not be in the same subscription as the source virtual machine(s).
Azure Storage firewalls for virtual networks Supported If you're using firewall enabled cache storage account or target storage account, ensure you 'Allow trusted Microsoft services'.

Also, ensure that you allow access to at least one subnet of source Vnet.

Note: Don't restrict virtual network access to your storage accounts used for Site Recovery. You should allow access from 'All networks'.
Soft delete Not supported Soft delete isn't supported because once it is enabled on cache storage account, it increases cost. Azure Site Recovery performs frequent creates/deletes of log files while replicating causing costs to increase.
Encryption at rest (CMK) Supported Storage account encryption can be configured with customer managed keys (CMK)
Managed identity Not supported The cached storage account must allow shared key access and Shared Access Signatures (SAS) signed by the shared key.

The following table lists the limits in terms of number of disks that can replicate to a single storage account.

Storage account type Churn = 4 MBps per disk Churn = 8 MBps per disk
V1 storage account 300 disks 150 disks
V2 storage account 750 disks 375 disks

As average churn on the disks increases, the number of disks that a storage account can support decreases. The above table may be used as a guide for making decisions on number of storage accounts that need to be provisioned.

Note

The cache limits are specific to Azure-to-Azure and Zone-to-Zone DR scenarios.

When you enable replication via the virtual machine workflow for cross subscription, the portal only lists the cache storage account from the source subscription, but doesn't list any storage account created in the target subscription. To set up this scenario, use PowerShell.

Azure Site Recovery isn't supported for VMs with Premium SSD v2 disks.

Replicated machine operating systems

Site Recovery supports replication of Azure VMs running the operating systems listed in this section. Note that if an already-replicating machine is later upgraded (or downgraded) to a different major kernel, you need to disable replication and re-enable replication after the upgrade.

Windows

Operating system Details
Windows Server 2022 Supported.
Windows Server 2019 Supported for Server Core, Server with Desktop Experience.
Windows Server 2016 Supported Server Core, Server with Desktop Experience.
Windows Server 2012 R2 Supported.
Windows Server 2012 Supported.
Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP1/SP2 Supported.

From version 9.30 of the Mobility service extension for Azure VMs, you need to install a Windows servicing stack update (SSU) and SHA-2 update on machines running Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1/SP2. SHA-1 isn't supported from September 2019, and if SHA-2 code signing isn't enabled the agent extension won't install/upgrade as expected. Learn more about SHA-2 upgrade and requirements.
Windows 11 (x64) Supported (From Mobility Agent version 9.56 onwards).
Windows 10 (x64) Supported.
Windows 8.1 (x64) Supported.
Windows 8 (x64) Supported.
Windows 7 (x64) with SP1 onwards From version 9.30 of the Mobility service extension for Azure VMs, you need to install a Windows servicing stack update (SSU) and SHA-2 update on machines running Windows 7 with SP1. SHA-1 isn't supported from September 2019, and if SHA-2 code signing isn't enabled the agent extension won't install/upgrade as expected. Learn more about SHA-2 upgrade and requirements.

Replicated machines - compute settings

Setting Support Details
Size Any Azure VM size with at least two CPU cores and 1-GB RAM Verify Azure virtual machine sizes.
RAM Azure Site Recovery driver consumes 6% of RAM.
Availability sets Supported If you enable replication for an Azure VM with the default options, an availability set is created automatically, based on the source region settings. You can modify these settings.
Availability zones Supported
Dedicated Hosts Not supported
Hybrid Use Benefit (HUB) Supported If the source VM has a HUB license enabled, a test failover or failed over VM also uses the HUB license.
Virtual Machine Scale Set Flex Availability scenario - supported. Scalability scenario - not supported.
Azure gallery images - Microsoft published Supported Supported if the VM runs on a supported operating system.
Azure Gallery images - Third party published Supported Supported if the VM runs on a supported operating system.
Custom images - Third party published Supported Supported if the VM runs on a supported operating system.
VMs migrated using Site Recovery Supported If a VMware VM or physical machine was migrated to Azure using Site Recovery, you need to uninstall the older version of Mobility service running on the machine, and restart the machine before replicating it to another Azure region.
Azure RBAC policies Not supported Azure role-based access control (Azure RBAC) policies on VMs aren't replicated to the failover VM in target region.
Extensions Not supported Extensions aren't replicated to the failover VM in target region. It needs to be installed manually after failover.
Proximity Placement Groups Supported Virtual machines located inside a Proximity Placement Group can be protected using Site Recovery.
Tags Supported User-generated tags applied on source virtual machines are carried over to target virtual machines post-test failover or failover. Tags on the VM(s) are replicated once every 24 hours for as long as the VM(s) is/are present in the target region.

Replicated machines - disk actions

Action Details
Resize disk on replicated VM Resizing up on the source VM is supported. Resizing down on the source VM isn't supported. Resizing should be performed before failover. No need to disable/re-enable replication.

If you change the source VM after failover, the changes aren't captured.

If you change the disk size on the Azure VM after failover, changes aren't captured by Site Recovery, and failback will be to the original VM size.

If resizing to >=4 TB, note Azure guidance on disk caching here.
Add a disk to a replicated VM Supported
Offline changes to protected disks Disconnecting disks and making offline modifications to them require triggering a full resync.
Disk caching Disk Caching isn't supported for disks 4 TB and larger. If multiple disks are attached to your VM, each disk that is smaller than 4 TB will support caching. Changing the cache setting of an Azure disk detaches and re-attaches the target disk. If it's the operating system disk, the VM is restarted. Stop all applications/services that might be affected by this disruption before changing the disk cache setting. Not following those recommendations could lead to data corruption.

Replicated machines - storage

Note

Azure Site Recovery supports storage accounts with page blob for unmanaged disk replication.

This table summarized support for the Azure VM OS disk, data disk, and temporary disk.

  • It's important to observe the VM disk limits and targets for managed disks to avoid any performance issues.
  • If you deploy with the default settings, Site Recovery automatically creates disks and storage accounts based on the source settings.
  • If you customize, ensure you follow the guidelines.
Component Support Details
Disk renaming Supported
OS disk maximum size 4095 GiB Learn more about VM disks.
Temporary disk Not supported The temporary disk is always excluded from replication.

Don't store any persistent data on the temporary disk. Learn more.
Data disk maximum size 32 TiB for managed disks

4 TiB for unmanaged disks
Data disk minimum size No restriction for unmanaged disks. 1 GiB for managed disks
Data disk maximum number Up to 64, in accordance with support for a specific Azure VM size Learn more about VM sizes.
Data disk maximum size per storage account (for unmanaged disks) 35 TiB This is an upper limit for cumulative size of page blobs created in a premium Storage Account
Data disk change rate Maximum of 20 MBps per disk for premium storage. Maximum of 2 MBps per disk for Standard storage. If the average data change rate on the disk is continuously higher than the maximum, replication won't catch up.

However, if the maximum is exceeded sporadically, replication can catch up, but you might see slightly delayed recovery points.
Data disk - standard storage account Supported
Data disk - premium storage account Supported If a VM has disks spread across premium and standard storage accounts, you can select a different target storage account for each disk, to ensure you have the same storage configuration in the target region.
Managed disk - standard Supported in Azure regions in which Azure Site Recovery is supported.
Managed disk - premium Supported in Azure regions in which Azure Site Recovery is supported.
Disk subscription limits Up to 3000 protected disks per Subscription Ensure that the Source or Target subscription doesn't have more than 3000 Azure Site Recovery-protected Disks (Both Data and OS).
Standard SSD Supported
Redundancy LRS, ZRS, and GRS are supported.
Cool and hot storage Not supported VM disks aren't supported on cool and hot storage

Soft delete Not supported Soft delete isn't supported because once it's enabled on a storage account, it increases cost. Azure Site Recovery performs very frequent creates/deletes of log files while replicating causing costs to increase.
iSCSI disks Not supported Azure Site Recovery may be used to migrate or failover iSCSI disks into Azure. However, iSCSI disks aren't supported for Azure to Azure replication and failover/failback.

Important

To avoid performance issues, make sure that you follow VM disk scalability and performance targets for managed disks. If you use default settings, Site Recovery creates the required disks and storage accounts, based on the source configuration. If you customize and select your own settings, follow the disk scalability and performance targets for your source VMs.

Limits and data change rates

The following table summarizes Site Recovery limits.

  • These limits are based on our tests, but obviously don't cover all possible application I/O combinations.
  • Actual results can vary based on your app I/O mix.
  • There are two limits to consider, per disk data churn and per virtual machine data churn.
  • The current limit for per virtual machine data churn is 54 MB/s, regardless of size.
**Replica Disk type ** Average source disk I/O Average source disk data churn Total source disk data churn per day
Standard storage 8 KB 2 MB/s 168 GB per disk
Premium SSD with disk size 128 GiB or more 8 KB 2 MB/s 168 GB per disk
Premium SSD with disk size 128 GiB or more 16 KB 4 MB/s 336 GB per disk
Premium SSD with disk size 128 GiB or more 32 KB or greater 8 MB/s 672 GB per disk
Premium SSD with disk size 512 GiB or more 8 KB 5 MB/s 421 GB per disk
Premium SSD with disk size 512 GiB or more 16 KB or greater 20 MB/s 1684 GB per disk

Note

High churn support is now available in Azure Site Recovery where churn limit per virtual machine has increased up to 100 MB/s. For more information, see Azure VM Disaster Recovery - High Churn Support.

Replicated machines - networking

Setting Support Details
NIC Maximum number supported for a specific Azure VM size NICs are created when the VM is created during failover.

The number of NICs on the failover VM depends on the number of NICs on the source VM when replication was enabled. If you add or remove a NIC after enabling replication, it doesn't impact the number of NICs on the replicated VM after failover.

The order of NICs after failover isn't guaranteed to be the same as the original order.

You can rename NICs in the target region based on your organization's naming conventions.
Internet Load Balancer Not supported You can set up public/internet load balancers in the primary region. However, public/internet load balancers aren't supported by Azure Site Recovery in the DR region.
Internal Load balancer Supported Associate the preconfigured load balancer using an Azure Automation script in a recovery plan.
Public IP address Supported Associate an existing public IP address with the NIC. Or, create a public IP address and associate it with the NIC using an Azure Automation script in a recovery plan.
NSG on NIC Supported Associate the NSG with the NIC using an Azure Automation script in a recovery plan.
NSG on subnet Supported Associate the NSG with the subnet using an Azure Automation script in a recovery plan.
Reserved (static) IP address Supported If the NIC on the source VM has a static IP address, and the target subnet has the same IP address available, it's assigned to the failed over VM.

If the target subnet doesn't have the same IP address available, one of the available IP addresses in the subnet is reserved for the VM.

You can also specify a fixed IP address and subnet in Replicated items > Settings > Network > Network interfaces.
Dynamic IP address Supported If the NIC on the source has dynamic IP addressing, the NIC on the failed over VM is also dynamic by default.

You can modify this to a fixed IP address if required.
Multiple IP addresses Supported When you fail over a VM that has a NIC with multiple IP addresses, only the primary IP address of the NIC in the source region is kept by default. To failover Secondary IP Configurations, go to the Network blade and configure them.
This is supported only for region replication, zone to zone replication isn't supported.
Traffic Manager Supported You can preconfigure Traffic Manager so that traffic is routed to the endpoint in the source region on a regular basis, and to the endpoint in the target region in case of failover.
Azure DNS Supported
Custom DNS Supported
Unauthenticated proxy Supported Learn more
Authenticated Proxy Not supported If the VM is using an authenticated proxy for outbound connectivity, it can't be replicated using Azure Site Recovery.
VPN site-to-site connection to on-premises

(with or without ExpressRoute)
Supported Ensure that the UDRs and NSGs are configured in such a way that the Site Recovery traffic isn't routed to on-premises. Learn more
VNET to VNET connection Supported Learn more
Virtual Network Service Endpoints Supported If you are restricting the virtual network access to storage accounts, ensure that the trusted Microsoft services are allowed access to the storage account.
Accelerated networking Supported Accelerated networking can be enabled on the recovery VM only if it is enabled on the source VM also. Learn more.
Palo Alto Network Appliance Not supported With third-party appliances, there are often restrictions imposed by the provider inside the Virtual Machine. Azure Site Recovery needs agent, extensions, and outbound connectivity to be available. But the appliance doesn't let any outbound activity to be configured inside the Virtual Machine.
IPv6 Not supported Mixed configurations that include both IPv4 and IPv6 are supported. However, Azure Site Recovery will use any free IPv4 address available, if there are no free IPv4 addresses in the subnet, then the configuration is not supported.
Private link access to Site Recovery service Supported Learn more
Tags Supported User-generated tags on NICs are replicated every 24 hours.
