+Register the Azure Migrate appliance | Azure Migrate uses a lightweight [Azure Migrate appliance](migrate-appliance.md) to assess machines with Azure Migrate Server Assessment, and to run [agentless migration](server-migrate-overview.md) of VMware VMs with Azure Migrate Server Migration. This appliance discovers machines, and sends metadata and performance data to Azure Migrate.<br/><br/> During registration, register providers (Microsoft.OffAzure, Microsoft.Migrate and Microsoft.KeyVault) are registered with the subscription chosen in the appliance, so that the subscription works with the resource provider. To register, you need Contributor or Owner access on the subscription.<br/><br/> During onboarding, Azure Migrate creates two Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) apps.<br/><br/> - The first app communicates between the appliance agents and the Azure Migrate service. The app doesn't have permissions to make Azure resource management calls or have RBAC access for resources.<br/><br/> - The second app accesses an Azure Key Vault created in the user subscription for agentless VMware migration only. In agentless migration, Azure Migrate creates a Key Vault to manage access keys to the replication storage account in your subscription. It has RBAC access on the Azure Key Vault (in the customer tenant) when discovery is initiated from the appliance. | Set up for [VMware](tutorial-prepare-vmware.md#assign-permissions-to-register-the-appliance), [Hyper-V](tutorial-prepare-hyper-v.md#assign-permissions-to-register-the-appliance), or [physical servers](tutorial-prepare-physical.md#assign-permissions-to-register-the-appliance).
