29. A company has the following set of servers that need to be migrated to an Azure subscription
Name Operating System Configuration
techcertproer1 Windows Server 2012 R2 Domain Controller
techcertproer2 Windows Server 2016 Microsoft SQL Server 2016
techcertproer3 Red Hat Linux Enterprise 7.5 File Server
The company decides to use the Azure Site Recovery tool to move the servers to Azure.
Would this fulfill the requirement?
Incorrect
B. No, Azure Site Recovery would not fulfill the requirement for all servers in this scenario.
Here’s why:
- Techcertproer1 (Domain Controller): Azure Site Recovery primarily supports replicating and recovering virtual machines (VMs) to Azure. While it can potentially replicate physical servers, it’s not designed for migrating Domain Controllers due to their complex dependencies and Active Directory synchronization requirements. A dedicated solution like Azure Migrate is recommended for domain controller migration.
- Techcertproer2 (Microsoft SQL Server 2016): Azure Site Recovery supports migrating SQL Server VMs, but it’s important to ensure compatibility with the specific version and configuration. Additionally, migrating production databases requires careful planning and considerations beyond replication. Additional tools or processes might be needed for a successful migration.
- Techcertproer3 (Red Hat Linux Enterprise 7.5 File Server): Azure Site Recovery supports migrating Linux VMs, including Red Hat Enterprise 7.5. However, it’s crucial to ensure proper configuration and application compatibility in the Azure environment.
Therefore, while Azure Site Recovery might be suitable for migrating some servers, it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution for all scenarios, especially considering Domain Controllers and complex database migrations.
Here are some alternative solutions to consider based on the specific server details:
- Domain Controller: Azure Migrate or manual migration with active directory synchronization.
- SQL Server: Azure Migrate, Azure Database Migration Service, or manual migration with careful planning and testing.
- Linux File Server: Azure Site Recovery with proper configuration and application compatibility testing.
