Migrating On Prem VM to Azure

Hi Experts, We have a requirement of moving out VMs as is in Azure from Current On-Prem and the process we are following is

1. Create a RAW image from an on-prem VM.
   
2. Convert the RAW image to VHD.
   
3. Move the VHD file to Azure Storage.
   
4. Convert the Disks to managed disks.
   
5. Mount the OS disk to the C drive and other disks respectively.
   

Issue - Once we mount the OS disk we are not able to RDP to the machine we have followed the steps suggested in the below links and as usual there are millions of documents and none point in the right direction unfrotunately.

Links followed to figure out options to get this done -

Prepare a Windows VHD to upload to Azure - Azure Virtual Machines | Microsoft Docs - Microsoft documentation.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/create-vm-specialized-portal - Microsoft documentation.

Upload a VHD to Azure and create a virtual machine - Stephanie Kahlam - Some helpful people created this and

We have tried options

1. Created image from managed disk and tried to initiate the VM and got exception as below
   Provisioning failed.
   OS Provisioning for VM 'demo-1' did not finish in the allotted time. However, the VM guest agent was detected running. This suggests the guest OS has not been properly prepared to be used as a VM image (with CreateOption=FromImage). To resolve this issue, either use the VHD as is with CreateOption=Attach or prepare it properly for use as an image:
   * Instructions for Windows: https://azure.microsoft.com/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-windows-upload-image/
   * Instructions for Linux: https://azure.microsoft.com/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-linux-capture-image/.
   
   
   and the suggested solution 1 to use CreateOption=Attach creates the VM but does not allow us to RDP to the machine so we are assuming it's not booting up. The other option suggested in the hyperlink is to create image using SysPrep which is not an option for us as we are performing a lift and shift.
   

I would like to get some guidance from experts on to the right process to follow.

 

Local app to VM running on local machine.

I have a laptop running an Allstarlink node in a Hyper-V virtual machine using Hyper-V's external switch. I would like to have a local laptop application, iaxRpt, connect to this VM and connect to the software running in it.

i.e. Laptop running Hyper-V VM. VM running Allstarlink (app). App on laptop outside of VM running iaxRpt connecting to Allstarlink in VM. This works as long as I am connecting from a 2nd Windows machine but not with both on the internal. Connecting from laptop Edge to Allstarlink in VM works fine. I can ping the VM ip address from anywhere.

Allstarlink, iaxRpt are both setup properly as they connect to other nodes/machines not on the same network as the laptop.

Anyone with any suggestions.

trying to ssh to a machine at home

yeah SELinux is disabled.

the router lists all of its connected clients, and can see the ipaddress of the server
