Hi Team,

I am going with an approach to convert the physical server image to virtual server image and deploy in Azure directly with StandWind V2V Converter tool.
Though I am providing valid Tenant ID, Client ID and Secret ID, It is unable to select Azure subscription.
I have also attached the error screenshot please advice.

Thanks & Regards,
Jayesh Patil

Hi,

Client ID, Application ID and Client secret are also to be acquired in Azure. Here is how that can be done.
1. Select Azure Active Directory from the FAVORITES section of the dropdown menu on the left.
NOTE: If there is no Azure Active Directory in the FAVORITES section, go to the All services menu
2. Select Azure Active Directory from the IDENTITY AREA. Alternatively, type “Azure Active Directory” in the search box at the top of the page.
3. Press App registrations. Click New registration next.
4. Specify the application name in the Register an application window. Supported account type can be left at the default settings (i.e., Single tenant). Type http://localhost in the Redirect URI area. Press Register to register the application.
5. Application details are opened automatically. Save Application (client) ID. Directory (tenant) ID matches the Azure Active Directory ID which can be acquired in Azure Active Directory -> Properties.
6. Generate the client secret by pressing the New client secret button.
7. Enter the client secret description and expiration period.
8. See the client secret in the Value area.
NOTE: Copy the client secret right after it is generated as its value becomes inaccessible once the New client secret page is closed.

Then, you need to subscribe an application [credentials of which you use] in MS Azure. We are working on a KB article on this matter. Here is the quick guide on how to subscribe the application in MS Azure:
1. Press Home in the dropdown menu on the left.
2. In the GENERAL area, select Subscriptions. Alternatively, type Subscriptions in the search box at the top of the page.
3. Press Access control (IAM) and click Add in the window which emerges right.
4. Select Add role assignment.
5. Set the role to Contributor under Add role assignment. Type the application name in the Select field, select the application, and press Save.

Here is how to create a storage Account in MS Azure.
1. Press Home in the dropdown menu on the left.
2. Click Storage accounts under the Storage section. Alternatively, type Storage accounts in the search box at the top of the page.
3. Click Add.
4. Select the resource group from the Resource group dropdown menu or create a new one.
5. To create a new Microsoft Azure resource group, type its name and click OK.
6. Fill in the Instance details section now. Press Review + create.
NOTE: StarWind V2V Converter does not require any other storage account settings, meaning that it is running smoothly with the very basic settings.
