Set up the configuration server for disaster recovery of physical servers to Azure

This article describes how to set up your on-premises environment to start replicating physical servers running Windows or Linux into Azure.

Prerequisites

The article assumes that you already have:

  • A Recovery Services vault in the Azure portal.
  • A physical computer on which to install the configuration server.
  • If you've disabled TLS 1.0 on the machine on which you're installing the configuration server, make sure that TLs 1.2 is enabled, and that the .NET Framework version 4.6 or later is installed on the machine (with strong cryptography enabled). Learn more.

Configuration server minimum requirements

The following table lists the minimum hardware, software, and network requirements for a configuration server. [!INCLUDE site-recovery-configuration-server-requirements]

Note

HTTPS-based proxy servers are not supported by the configuration server.

Choose your protection goals

  1. In the Azure portal, go to the Recovery Services vaults blade and select your vault.

  2. In the Resource menu of the vault, click Getting Started > Site Recovery > Step 1: Prepare Infrastructure > Protection goal.

    Screenshot that shows where to select the protection goal.

  3. In Protection goal, select To Azure and Not virtualized/Other, and then click OK.

    Choose goals

Set up the source environment

  1. In Prepare source, if you don’t have a configuration server, click +Configuration server to add one.

    Screenshot that shows how to select the configuration server.

  2. In the Add Server blade, check that Configuration Server appears in Server type.

  3. Download the Site Recovery Unified Setup installation file.

  4. Download the vault registration key. You need the registration key when you run Unified Setup. The key is valid for five days after you generate it.

    Set up source

  5. On the machine you’re using as the configuration server, run Azure Site Recovery Unified Setup to install the configuration server, the process server, and the master target server.

Run Azure Site Recovery Unified Setup

Tip

Configuration server registration fails if the time on your computer's system clock is more than five minutes off of local time. Synchronize your system clock with a time server before starting the installation.
