Beginning with Windows Server 2012, [additional safeguards are built into Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)](https://technet.microsoft.com/windows-server-docs/identity/ad-ds/introduction-to-active-directory-domain-services-ad-ds-virtualization-level-100). These safeguards help protect virtualized domain controllers against USN rollbacks if the underlying hypervisor platform supports **VM-GenerationID**. Azure supports **VM-GenerationID**. Because of this, domain controllers that run Windows Server 2012 or later on Azure virtual machines have these additional safeguards.

The tool creates several 64-MB asrvhdfile<#>.vhd files (where "#" is the number of files) on the specified directory. The tool uploads the files to the storage account to find the throughput. After the throughput is measured, the tool deletes all the files from the storage account and from the local server. If the tool is terminated for any reason while it is calculating throughput, it doesn't delete the files from the storage or from the local server. You will have to delete them manually.
