Azure Site Recovery Skill
This skill provides expert guidance for Azure Site Recovery. Covers troubleshooting, best practices, decision making, architecture & design patterns, limits & quotas, security, configuration, integrations & coding patterns, and deployment. It combines local quick-reference content with remote documentation fetching capabilities.
How to Use This Skill
IMPORTANT for Agent: Use the Category Index below to locate relevant sections. For categories with line ranges (e.g.,
L35-L120), useread_filewith the specified lines. For categories with file links (e.g.,[security.md](security.md)), useread_fileon the linked reference file
IMPORTANT for Agent: If
metadata.generated_atis more than 3 months old, suggest the user pull the latest version from the repository. Ifmcp_microsoftdocstools are not available, suggest the user install it: Installation Guide
This skill requires network access to fetch documentation content:
- Preferred: Use
mcp_microsoftdocs:microsoft_docs_fetchwith query stringfrom=learn-agent-skill. Returns Markdown. - Fallback: Use
fetch_webpagewith query stringfrom=learn-agent-skill&accept=text/markdown. Returns Markdown.

| Troubleshooting | L37-L61 | Diagnosing and fixing Azure Site Recovery issues across Azure, Hyper-V, and VMware, including replication, connectivity, agents/extensions, failover/failback, and common error codes. |
| Best Practices | L62-L67 | Guidance on tuning Azure Site Recovery performance: analyzing high data churn on VMs, and monitoring/troubleshooting process server health, capacity, and throughput. |
| Decision Making | L68-L85 | Planning and sizing Azure Site Recovery for DR: choosing tools (ASR vs Azure Migrate), VM sizes, failback types, managed disk and DR costs, and using/reading Deployment Planner reports for Hyper-V/VMware. |
| Architecture & Design Patterns | L86-L97 | Design patterns and reference architectures for using Azure Site Recovery to protect networks and complex apps (SAP, SharePoint, IIS, Dynamics AX, SQL, file servers) and build end-to-end DR solutions. |
| Limits & Quotas | L98-L109 | Limits, support matrices, and constraints for Azure Site Recovery (Azure-to-Azure, Hyper-V, VMware/physical), high-churn VMs, shared disks, Backup coexistence, planner limits, and Mobility service impact. |
| Security | L110-L122 | Encrypting and securing ASR: configuring ADE/CMK encryption, NSGs, TLS, RBAC, trusted launch, VMware-to-Azure security, and migrating from legacy Run As to managed identities. |
| Configuration | L123-L166 | Configuring Azure Site Recovery for VMware/Hyper-V/Azure VMs: networking, IPs, disks, appliances, policies, monitoring, and DR setup for AVS, Extended Zones, and shared/clustered workloads. |
| Integrations & Coding Patterns | L167-L183 | Automating and integrating Azure Site Recovery using PowerShell, ARM/Bicep/Terraform, ExpressRoute, Traffic Manager, and runbooks, including Hyper-V, VMware, shared disk, and Azure VM DR setups. |
| Deployment | L184-L190 | Configuring and running ASR deployments: enabling Azure-to-Azure and VMware-to-Azure VM replication, executing DR migrations, and performing reprotect/failback of Azure VMs. |
