Migrate VM to Azure
I have a virtual machine running on standalone esxi and I do not have the access to the virtual host. but I have access to the VM which runs Windows Server. How can I migrate this to Azure? I have already tried using Starwind v2v and created 2 vhds (1 for OS and 1 for Data) and uploaded them to Azure. I created an image out of the OS disks and tried deploying a VM. It's been like 45 minutes now, but still it says the deployment in progress. If this does not work, what methods I can use to migrate the VM?
- If you prefer a more manual approach, you can use Azure PowerShell or Azure CLI to migrate the virtual machine. This involves creating a new Azure VM and copying the VHD files from your on-premises VM to Azure storage. You would then attach the VHDs to the new Azure VM and configure the necessary networking and settings.
Or you can use a use third-party, migration tools that can be used to directly migrate VMs to Azure, such as ShareGate, CloudFuze, Gs Richcopy360, and GoodSync , search all Please refer to the options to migrate VMware VM to Azure:
