You can change the destination settings for a virtual machine in a replication group.
Procedure
-
From the navigation pane, go to Auto recovery > Replication groups.
The Replication groups page appears.
-
Click the replication group.
The Overview tab for the recovery group page appears.
-
On the Configuration tab, in the row for the VM that you want to override replication options, click the action button
, and then select Override recovery options. The Override replication options dialog box appears.
-
In the VM display name box, enter a string that is added to source VM names to create display names for the destination VMs, or enter a prefix or suffix to apply to multiple VMs.
You can only change this value when adding a new VM or if a replication group is a warm site for Azure.
-
From the Resource group list, select the resource group in which the converted virtual machine should be created.
You can only change this value when adding a new VM or if a replication group is a warm site for Azure.
-
From the Region list, select the region for the restored VM.
-
From the Storage Account list, select an Azure Standard or Premium general-purpose storage account. You can select a different storage account for each virtual machine and disk.
The storage accounts listed are only those associated with the selected region for the restored VM.
You can only change this value when adding a new VM or if a replication group is a warm site for Azure
-
From the VM size box, select a VM size from the list. The VM sizes in the list are those that are available for the resource group you selected.
-
From the Availability zone list, for Azure managed disks, select the pre-defined availability zone for the restored VM.
The zones listed apply only to the region selected for the restored VM. If you select the Auto option rather than a specific availability zone (1, 2, or 3), and if the feature is supported for the specified region and VM size, the VM is restored to the same availability zone as the source VM, otherwise, it is restored without a zone (No Zone).
You can only change this value for new recovery targets or if a replication group is a warm site for Azure.
-
From the Disk type list, for managed disks, select the disk type for the destination VM: Original (same as the source VM), Standard HDD, Standard SSD, Premium SSD.
Consider the following:
-
When the Disk Type for the recovery target is set to Auto select, the destination VM disk type is as follows:
-
For Azure source to Azure destination recovery, the destination VM disk type is the same as the source VM.
-
For any other vendor (such as VMware) to Azure destination recovery, the destination VM disk type is standard HDD.
-
-
When the Disk Type for the recovery target is set to Premium SSD, but in the Override recovery options window, the Disk Type is set to Original, the destination VM disk type is as follows:
- For Azure source to Azure destination recovery, the destination VM disk type is the same as the source VM.
-
When the Disk Type for the recovery target is set to Auto select, and in the Override recovery options window, the Disk Type is set to Original, the destination VM disk type is as follows:
-
For Azure to Azure recovery, when in the Override replication options window, the VM size selected does not support premium SSD (for example, D2v3), the destination VM disk type is standard HDD.
-
For Azure source to Azure destination recovery, when in the Override replication options window, the VM size selected supports premium SSD (for example, B2ms), the destination VM disk type is the same as the source VM.
-
-
-
From the Virtual network list, select one of the available network interfaces for the resource group from the list.
You can specify any subnet in the same region as the selected resource group.
If you do not select a VNet, then the first VNet in the list and the first (default) subnet that it expands to are attached to the replicated VM.
Static IP addresses from a source VM are not replicated to the destination VM.
-
From the Security group list, select a network security group for the destination VMs.
You can only change this value when adding a new VM.
-
To create a public IP, move the Create public IP toggle key to the right.
If a public IP address is not required on destination VMs, clear this selection. By default, a public IP address is assigned to Azure virtual machines during recovery.

Click Save.
