Azure Connection parameters

[marcelo]

Hi

I am trying to convert an Azure VM to VMWare VM. When I enter the tenant id, client id, client secret and click Get Subscriptions, nothing happens.
No errors, nothing.

What am I missing?

Cheers,
Marcelo

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.

Thank you! That worked.

I am getting an error when doing the actual conversion. See atttached.
Any ideas?

Hello Marcelo,

The VM might be running. Please, power off the VM and try converting again.
Before converting a virtual machine or an image file, check whether the following prerequisites are met
Network adapters are enabled on system boot
Network adapters have IP addresses assigned over DHCP
RDP or SSH are enabled
Firewall is set to allow for remote connections over RDP or SSH
The VM that is to be converted is powered off
Retrieved from: https://www.starwindsoftware.com/v2v-help/Cloud.html
Please, provide us with the logs if you are not able to convert a VM after powering it off.

Hi,

Azure part is discussed here https://www.starwindsoftware.com/v2v-help/Cloud.html
Could you please clarify your request?

Hi

Having a similar issue.

Created an App in Microsoft Entra ID, Created a secret. User role is already owner. created a storage account.

after entering all the details, and clicking get subscriptions, nothing happens, no error.

FYI Our subscription is a sponsorship subscription. Should not make a difference though.

Did you create the resource group?
Please also make sure running the software as an administrator.

[bhirani]

The VM along with it's disk are in the same resource group. The entra ID app is not. Not sure we can put the app in a resource group.

the storage account is in the same resource group.

Can someone please make a video or an update how to guide for creating the app? Also making sure all roles and permissions are set properly.

I followed the guide below.

Is there a way we can test the credentials? or see some kind of logs from the converter?

[bhirani]

I have tested the credentials using curl and I get a JSON response with an access token.

Do you have a az cli command I can run to see if the app configuration is correct.

[yaroslav (staff)]

Thanks for checking. Are you running the converter as the admin?
I will log an internal testing request.

[yaroslav (staff)]

The issue is that Azure keeps on changing things on their end every now and then.
You can try an ancient V2V converter where things worked for sure. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hDP4gl ... Ea_5p/view

[bhirani]

Thanks for the update. But this did not work either. I did run the app as administrator.

Is there a az cli command i could run and show you the output. so that we can verify the azure app is correctly configured.

[yaroslav (staff)]

Sadly no commands, AFAIK.
