Hello,
We have existing VM's in a Subscription, created another Subscription within the same Tenant and want to move Virtual machines and its resources to the New Subscription created. Tried using Azure Resource mover to move VM resources to the New Subscription Resource group in validation fails pointing to the Nics of the VMs and fails to go to next step.
let us know if this is a known issue with moving VM resources to a New Subscription within the same Tenant.
Thanks,

Hi @Jaganljpmail ,
You can try this first if you are not sure how and if this will work:
Before moving the "productive VM" -> Backup VM!

Hi @Jaganljpmail ,
if you delete the VM and not the disk everything is stored on the disk. If you move the disk to another subscription the content of the disk will be the same. You won't loose any content of the disk when disk is moved from subscription A to B.
Regarding Azure Site Recovery maybe this will help: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/site-recovery/azure-to-azure-common-questions#how-do-i-get-started-with-azure-vm-disaster-recovery

Hi @Jaganljpmail ,
it looks like you are not moving the vNet together with your VM?
Than there is no option to move the VM with the Azure Resource Mover this way.
But there is an option:
Second option: You can use Azure Site Recovery to "move" the VM between the subscriptions.
