Hello,

I am facing an issue with the Azure Resource Mover process and need some assistance. Here are the details of my situation:

  1. I am in the process of moving resources from the Central US region to the West US region using Azure Resource Mover. The current status is "Delete source" pending.
  2. The resources being moved are 2 Azure SQL Databases.
  3. Due to certain reasons, I wish to cancel the process at this stage.
  4. I have already deleted the 2 Azure SQL Databases in the West US region.
  5. I am keeping the 2 Azure SQL Databases in the Central US region, and they are still online and in use without any issues.

What steps should I take to complete the "Delete source" pending stage, effectively cancel the Azure Resource Mover process, and continue using the 2 databases in the Central US region?

Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hello @HCDS Thank you for posting your question and sorry for the delayed response.Delete source resources is an optional step. If you want to delete the source resource after commit. Here you want to keep the source resource, hence you can skip the delete source step as mentioned in this page: https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/azure/resource-mover/tutorial-move-region-sql#delete-source-resources-after-commit

    If you wish to cancel the Azure Resource Mover process and keep the resources in their original location, you can follow these steps:

    1. In the Azure portal, navigate to the Azure Resource Mover project that you created for the migration.
    2. Select the migration that you want to cancel.
    3. Click on the "Cancel migration" button.
    4. In the confirmation dialog box, select the "Delete target resources" option and click "OK".
    5. Wait for the migration to be canceled and the status to change to "Canceled".
    6. Verify that the resources in the source location are still available and functioning as expected.

    In your case, since you have already deleted the 2 Azure SQL Databases in the West US region, you can skip step 4 and simply wait for the migration to be canceled.

    Once the migration is canceled, you can continue using the 2 databases in the Central US region without any issues. However, it's important to note that any changes made to the databases during the migration process may not have been replicated to the source location, so you may need to manually update the databases to ensure that they are up-to-date.

    Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any questions or need further assistance.
