Replication occurs as follows:

- When the Start Replication job finishes successfully, the machines begin their initial replication to Azure.
149-
- During initial replication, a VM snapshot is created. Disk data from the snapshot is replicated to replica managed disks in Azure.
150-
- After initial replication finishes, delta replication begins. Incremental changes to on-premises disks are periodically replicated to the replica disks in Azure.

3. Use PowerShell to view **Time Remaining** across **all stages of server migration** in Azure Migrate. This helps you monitor replication progress and plan cutover accurately.
153+
4. Open the **Azure portal**, then select the **Cloud Shell** at the top. Select **PowerShell** when prompted.
154+
5. Run this command in Azure Cloud Shell to monitor the migration status of the server you need.
155+
156+
```powershell
157+
158+
Get-AzMigrateServerMigrationStatus -ProjectName "<your-project-name>" -ResourceGroupName "<your-resource-group>" -MachineName "<your-server-name>"
159+
160+
```
161+
6. Replace `your-project-name`, `your-resource-group`, and `your-server-name` with the actual Azure Migrate project, resource group, and server name.
162+
7. You run this command and get the following output:
163+
164+
:::image type="content" source="./media/tutorial-migrate-vmware/run-command.png" alt-text="Screenshot shows the output when you run the command." lightbox="./media/tutorial-migrate-vmware/run-command.png":::
165+
166+
8. The output shows the server replication status, disk progress, time left, upload speed, and datastore details.
167+
9. You can run the command without `-MachineName` to view migration status and time remaining for all servers in the project. For example:
168+
169+
```powershell
170+
171+
Get-AzMigrateServerMigrationStatus -ProjectName "<your-project-name>" -ResourceGroupName "<your-resource-group>"
172+
```
173+
174+
10. Replace `your-project-name` and `your-resource-group` with the actual Azure Migrate project and resource group names.
175+
11. You run this command and get the following output: <br /><br />
176+
177+
:::image type="content" source="./media/tutorial-migrate-vmware/replication-status.png"alt-text="Screenshot shows the overall replication status. "lightbox="./media/tutorial-migrate-vmware/replication-status.png":::
178+
179+
12. If there is a problem with replication or cutover, the `-Health` flag shows **errors, possible causes, and recommended actions** to troubleshoot the migration.
180+
181+
```powershell
182+
183+
Get-AzMigrateServerMigrationStatus -ProjectName "<your-project-name>" -ResourceGroupName "<your-resource-group>" -MachineName "<your-server-name>" -Health
184+
```
185+
13. You run this command and get the following output: <br /><br />
186+
187+
:::image type="content" source="./media/tutorial-migrate-vmware/replication-complete.png" alt-text="Screenshot shows the replication complete status." lightbox="./media/tutorial-migrate-vmware/replication-complete.png":::
188+
189+
14. You can also run the command with only `-ApplianceName` to view the migration status, time remaining, and health details for **all servers connected to that appliance**.
190+
191+
```powershell
192+
Get-AzMigrateServerMigrationStatus -ProjectName "<your-project-name>" -ResourceGroupName "<your-resource-group>" -ApplianceName "<your-appliance-
193+
```
194+
15. Replace `your-project-name`, `your-resource-group`, and `your-appliance-name` with the actual values from your Azure Migrate setup.
195+
196+
16. You run this command to get the following output: <br /><br />
