## Action Required
35-
- We recommend using the **simplified experience** for initiating replication of any new agent-based VMware or physical servers. Please note that replication initialization via the classic experience will no longer be supported after **October 30, 2025**.
36-
- Servers currently under replication using the classic experience will continue to be supported until the retirement date of **March 30, 2026**. We encourage you to complete your migrations well before this date.
37-
- If you have servers discovered through the replication appliance under the classic experience, ensure replication is initiated before **October 30, 2025**, and plan your subsequent migrations accordingly.
