    Hello @Ijtehad Farooqui Thank you for posting your concern on the Microsoft Q&A platform. Sorry for the inconvenience this must have caused you!

    This is a comon issue. When using the Migrate Project for the replication we need to deploy the
    Classic Configuration Server, it's a different appliance than the one used in the Migrate assessment. There is no config file in this scenario. The installation of the mobility agent MUST be by CMD and these are the instructions:

    The screenshot:

    is from the ASR MODERNIZE Appliance and is NOT the same that is used for Migration. In Migration the CLASSIC appliance is used. The configurator file is only used in the modernize appliance. User's image

    Hope this clarifies. Please feel free to write back to us if you have any further questions!
