- **Using agentless migration**: Migrate VMs without needing to install anything on them. You deploy the [Azure Migrate appliance](migrate-appliance.md) for agentless migration.

**vCenter Server permissions** | Agentless migration uses the [Migrate Appliance](migrate-appliance.md). The appliance needs these permissions in vCenter Server:<br/><br/> - **Datastore.Browse** (Datastore -> Browse datastore): Allow browsing of VM log files to troubleshoot snapshot creation and deletion.<br/><br/> - **Datastore.FileManagement** (Datastore -> Low level file operations): Allow read/write/delete/rename operations in the datastore browser, to troubleshoot snapshot creation and deletion.<br/><br/> - **VirtualMachine.Config.ChangeTracking** (Virtual machine -> Disk change tracking): Allow enable or disable change tracking of VM disks, to pull changed blocks of data between snapshots.<br/><br/> - **VirtualMachine.Config.DiskLease** (Virtual machine -> Disk lease): Allow disk lease operations for a VM, to read the disk using the VMware vSphere Virtual Disk Development Kit (VDDK).<br/><br/> - **VirtualMachine.Provisioning.DiskRandomRead** (Virtual machine -> Provisioning -> Allow read-only disk access): Allow opening a disk on a VM, to read the disk using the VDDK.<br/><br/> - **VirtualMachine.Provisioning.DiskRandomAccess** (Virtual machine -> Provisioning -> Allow disk access): Allow opening a disk on a VM, to read the disk using the VDDK.<br/><br/> - **VirtualMachine.Provisioning.GetVmFiles** (Virtual machine -> Provisioning -> Allow virtual machine download): Allows read operations on files associated with a VM, to download the logs and troubleshoot if failure occurs.<br/><br/> - **VirtualMachine.State.\*** (Virtual machine -> Snapshot management): Allow creation and management of VM snapshots for replication.<br/><br/> - **VirtualMachine.Interact.PowerOff** (Virtual machine -> Interaction -> Power off): Allow the VM to be powered off during migration to Azure.

**Multiple vCenter Servers** | A single appliance can connect to up to 10 vCenter Servers.

When you set up the replication appliance using the OVA template provided in the Azure Migrate hub, the appliance runs Windows Server 2016 and complies with the support requirements. If you set up the replication appliance manually on a physical server, then make sure that it complies with the requirements.
