Storage Migration Service makes it easier to migrate storage to Windows Server or to Azure. It provides a graphical tool that inventories data on Windows, Linux, and NetApp CIFS servers and then transfers the data to newer servers or to Azure virtual machines. Storage Migration Service also provides the option to transfer the identity of a server to the destination server so that apps and users can access their data without changing links or paths.
This article discusses the following Storage Migration Service aspects:
Use Storage Migration Service because you've got a server or multiple servers that you want to migrate to newer hardware or virtual machines. Storage Migration Service is designed to help by doing the following tasks:
Migration is a three-step process:
Inventory servers to gather info about their files and configuration, shown in the following figure.
Transfer (copy) data from the source servers to the destination servers.
Cut over to the new servers (optional).
The destination servers assume the source servers' former identities so that apps and users don't have to change anything.
The source servers enter a maintenance state where they still contain the same files they always have (we never remove files from the source servers) but are unavailable to users and apps. You can then decommission the servers at your convenience.
The following video shows how to use Storage Migration Service to take a server, such as a Windows Server 2008 R2 server that's out of support, and move the storage to a newer server.
To use Storage Migration Service, you need the following items:
We strongly recommend that the orchestrator and destination computers have at least two cores or two vCPUs and at least 2 GB of memory. Inventory and transfer operations are faster with more processors and memory.
A migration account that is an administrator on the source computers and the orchestrator computer. This account can be a domain or local account except in the case of a computer that isn't joined to the domain, in which case it must be a local user.
A migration account that is an administrator on the destination computers and the orchestrator computer. This account can be a domain or local account except in the case of a computer that isn't joined to the domain, in which case it must be a local user.
The orchestrator computer must have the File and Printer Sharing (SMB-In) firewall rule enabled inbound.
The source and destination computers must have the following firewall rules enabled inbound (although you might already have them enabled):

Installing the Storage Migration Service Proxy service on a destination computer automatically opens the necessary firewall ports on that computer. To do so, connect to the destination server in Windows Admin Center and then go to Server Manager (in Windows Admin Center) > Roles and features, select Storage Migration Service Proxy, and then choose Install.
If the computers belong to an Active Directory Domain Services domain, they should all belong to the same forest. The destination server must also be in the same domain as the source server if you want to transfer the source's domain name to the destination when cutting over. While cutover works across domains, the fully qualified domain name of the destination is different from the source and using two different domains will likely cause DNS issues.
The source server must run one of the following operating systems:
Opomba
Windows Small Business Server and Windows Server Essentials are domain controllers. Storage Migration Service can't cut over from domain controllers, but it can inventory and transfer files from them.
You can migrate the following other source types if the orchestrator is running Windows Server 2019 with KB5001384 installed or Windows Server 2022:
The destination server must run one of the following operating systems:
The destination servers can be standalone servers or a Windows failover cluster. Be aware that the clusters themselves are not migrated, solely the file server cluster resources. They can't run Azure Local or use a non-Microsoft clustering add-on. While the Storage Migration Service doesn't support Azure Files as a destination, it fully supports servers running the Azure File Sync agent with cloud tiering.
Nasvet
Destination servers running Windows Server 2019 or later have double the transfer performance of earlier versions of Windows Server. This performance boost is due to the inclusion of a built-in Storage Migration Service proxy service.
Windows Admin Center integrates Azure IaaS deployment into Storage Migration Service. It lets you avoid building new servers and VMs in the Azure portal by hand prior to deploying your workload. It also lets you avoid possibly missing required steps and configuration. Windows Admin Center can deploy the Azure IaaS VM, configure its storage, join it to your domain, install roles, and then set up your distributed system.
The following video shows how to use Storage Migration Service to migrate to Azure VMs.
If you want to lift and shift virtual machines to Azure without migrating to a later operating system, consider using Azure Migrate. For more information, see About Azure Migrate.
