Hi,
We recently ran a fairly complicated VM migration which involved downloading the VHDs locally, in-place upgrading from Windows server 2008 R2 to all the way up to Windows Server 2016 ( as it can't be done in Azure) and we then uploaded the VHDs to a totally different Azure subscription and created a VM linked to the VHDs. This VM needed to be migrated and this seemed an easier option than re-uploading to the original Azure subscription and then having to run a migration.
However, the Azure backup in the new subscription fails and it just says try restarting the com+ service or rebooting the server. I have also totally removed the server from the backup vault and deleted the data (turned off soft delete so it went straight away), then re-added back in and it still fails. It passes the pre-checks but when running a backup it fails.
Does anyone have any advice? IS there some backup extension left in place from the old subscription maybe? How do i clean this up? I can only find details on cleaning up the VM whilst it is still attached to the backup vault.
Thanks in advance
