+Although Hyper-V provides capabilities to manage your on-premises VMs, Azure Local VMs offer many benefits over traditional on-premises tools. These benefits include:
 
 - Role-based access control (RBAC) via built-in Azure Local roles enhances security by ensuring that only authorized users can perform VM management operations. For more information, see [Use role-based access control to manage Azure Local virtual machines](./assign-vm-rbac-roles.md).

+Consider the following limitations when you're managing VMs on Azure Local:
 
-- Taking checkpoints on Azure Arc VMs running on Azure Local by using on-premises tools, such as Windows Admin Center or Hyper-V Manager, will adversely affect the management of these Azure Arc VMs from Azure.
-- Updates to Azure Arc VM configurations, such as vCPU, memory, network interface, or data disk via on-premises tools, won't be reflected on the Azure management plane.
-- Moving a resource group isn't supported for Azure Arc VMs on Azure Local and its associated resources (such as network interfaces and disks).
-- Creation of Azure Arc VMs by using Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2 images isn't supported via the Azure portal. You can do it only via the Azure CLI.
