I am configuring Hyper-V for Azure site recovery, i have added the HyperV to HyperV site and when i try to replicate the servers i am getting these below error in azure:

Error ID

  • Error Message Protection couldn't be enabled for the virtual machine.
  • Provider error Provider error code: 31389 Provider error message: Job 'Enabling Replication' (8483628E-EED3-42D7-9D87-F4085BFDA753) failed. Job State Exception. Error Code: 32768.

  • Possible causes Protection can't be enabled with the virtual machine in its current state. Check the Provider errors for more information.
  • Recommendation Fix any issues in the Event Viewer logs (Applications and Service Logs - MicrosoftAzureRecoveryServices) on the Hyper-V host server. For details see http://aka.ms/asr_troubleshoot/#troubleshoot-on-premises-hyper-v-issues. If this virtual machine is enabled for replication on the Hyper-V host, disable this setting. Then try to enable protection again.

Also in the HyperV event Viewer, i can see this error message: Hyper-V failed to enable replication for virtual machine 'Exchange16a': Unspecified error (0x80004005). (Virtual machine ID 106BC957-9129-4FAB-814F-7BB70ABF6149)

As of now i have re-installed the agent, disabled and enabled the replication, but nothing as worked, please feel free to suggest.
