Options for Conversion to Azure Stack Hub

When you restore a VM from a different hypervisor to Azure Stack Hub, provide Azure Stack Hub values for the restore operation.

Restore options

  • Type: Select Out of place.

  • Restore as: Select Azure Stack.

  • Destination: Select the Azure Stack Hub hypervisor for the converted VM.

    Note

    • Static IP addresses from a source VM are not replicated to the destination VM.

    • VMs will be restored as managed VM in Azure Stack Hub.

  • Access node (Optional): To change the proxy from the default value, select a proxy from the list.

    By default, the restore uses the preferred VSA proxy for the destination hypervisor.

  • If you are restoring multiple VMs, click the All VMs tab in the lower-left area of the page to specify configuration values for all VMs that you are restoring, or the name of each VM to specify values individually. Specify the following values:

    • Enable edit destination VM name (for all VMs): To change the names of all destination VMs, select this option, select Prefix or Suffix, and then enter a string to be appended to the original display name to create new destination VM names.

    • VM display name (for individual VMs): To change the name of an individual VM, enter the new display name in the box.

    • Resource group: To specify the resource group for the restored VM, enter a name in the box.

    • Region: Select the region for the restored VM.

    • Storage account: Select an Azure Standard or Premium general-purpose storage account. You can select a different storage account for each virtual machine and disk.

      The storage accounts listed are only those associated with the selected region for the restored VM.

    • Operating system: Select the operating system for the restored VM.

      Do not use the Auto Select option.

    • VM size: Select a size specification for the restored virtual machine.

    • Disk Type: For managed disks only, select the disk type for the destination VM: Standard HDD, Premium SSD.

      Note

      If the size of the destination VM does not support the Premium SSD disk type, the VM is deployed with the Standard HDD disk type.

    • Network settings:

      • Virtual network/subnet: Select the network settings.

      • Preferred private IP type: Select either Dynamic or Static. If you select Static, the following appears:

        - Static private IP: Enter the IP address.

    • Create/assign public IP: If this is selected, the Public IP type entry appears.

      • Public IP type: Select either Dynamic or Static. If you select Static, the following appears:

        - Static public IP: Enter the IP address.

    • Security group: Specify a network security group for the restored VM or leave the default value of Auto Select.

  • Power on VMs after restore: Start the VM automatically when the restore completes.

  • Unconditionally overwrite if it already exists: Delete an existing virtual machine that has the same name, and replace it with the restored VM.
