Post-recovery considerations for cloud VMs recovered to VMware
Considerations for the restored VMs:
These are some default Configurations of the recovered VMs. You may need to modify them manually before using the VMs.
The default boot configuration is EFI.
the default disk controller is SCSI.
Default Network adapter type is VMXNET 3.
Default OS type is x64.
In Azure, for generation 1 VMs, you must modify the boot configuration in "VM options" to BIOS. Also, change the disk controller to "IDE". For more information, see Azure documentation:
