A. B. C. D. E. F.

AE

E: On each machine you want to analyze, install the following agents:

-> The Microsoft Monitoring agent (MMA).

-> The Dependency agent.

A: You create the appliance VM.

Azure Migrate: Server Assessment uses a lightweight Azure Migrate appliance. The appliance performs VM discovery and sends VM configuration and performance metadata to Azure Migrate. The appliance can be set up by deploying a VHD file that can be downloaded from the Azure Migrate project.

You set up the appliance on a Hyper-V VM, as follows:

1. Provide an appliance name and generate an Azure Migrate project key in the portal.

2. Download a compressed Hyper-V VHD from the Azure portal.

3. Create the appliance, and check that it can connect to Azure Migrate Server Assessment.

4. Configure the appliance for the first time, and register it with the Azure Migrate project using the Azure Migrate project key.

Note: Details -

1. Extract the zipped VHD file to a folder on the Hyper-V host that will host the appliance VM. Three folders are extracted.

2. Open Hyper-V Manager. In Actions, click Import Virtual Machine.

3. In the Import Virtual Machine Wizard > Before you begin, click Next.

4. In Locate Folder, specify the folder containing the extracted VHD. Then click Next.

5. In Select Virtual Machine, click Next.

6. In Choose Import Type, click Copy the virtual machine (create a new unique ID). Then click Next.

7. In Choose Destination, leave the default setting. Click Next.

8. In Storage Folders, leave the default setting. Click Next.

9. In Choose Network, specify the virtual switch that the VM will use. The switch needs internet connectivity to send data to Azure.

10.In Summary, review the settings. Then click Finish.

11.In Hyper-V Manager > Virtual Machines, start the VM.

To evaluate virtual machines by using Azure Migrate, you need to perform the following two actions:

A. Deploy the Azure Migrate appliance to an on-premises Hyper-V host: The Azure Migrate appliance is a lightweight virtual machine (VM) that runs on a Hyper-V host within your on-premises environment. The appliance provides a secure, agent-based mechanism for collecting performance data and assessing the suitability of your virtual machines for migration to Azure.

F. Deploy the Azure Migrate appliance as an Azure virtual machine: Once you have deployed the Azure Migrate appliance to your on-premises Hyper-V host, you also need to deploy it as an Azure VM in your Azure subscription. This allows you to import the metadata collected by the appliance and perform the assessment of your virtual machines' suitability for migration to Azure.

Therefore, the correct answer is A and F.

B, D, and E are not necessary for evaluating virtual machines by using Azure Migrate. Assigning the migration account to the Administrators group on each Hyper-V virtual machine or Hyper-V host is not required for the Azure Migrate appliance to collect performance data or perform the assessment. Deploying the Microsoft Monitoring Agent to each Hyper-V host or Hyper-V virtual machine is not required either, as the Azure Migrate appliance provides its own agent-based mechanism for collecting performance data.
