If you have VMware machines connected to Azure via Arc-enabled Servers route, you can seamlessly get additional capabilities by deploying resource bridge and connecting vCenter to Azure. The additional capabilities include the ability to perform virtual machine lifecycle operations, such as create, resize, and power cycle operations such as start, stop, and so on. You can get additional capabilities without any disruption, retaining the VM extensions configured on the Arc-enabled Server machines.
