Step 1: Connect and configure replication from on-premises FlashArray

Access Everpure Cloud Dedicated and get connection key.
Access on-premises FlashArray and establish the connection with Everpure Cloud Dedicated by clicking on the plus icon, and fill the following:

Management Address: this is the Everpure Cloud Dedicated floating IP address used to access the GUI.
Type: Async Replication
Connection Key: The key obtained in the previous step.
Replication Address: The replication addresses are auto-discovered unless NAT is used. (In order to get the replication address use the Everpure Cloud Dedicated GUI and go to Settings > Network).

3. Create a protection group for replication to Everpure Cloud Dedicated.

4. Click on the created protection group and enable and edit replication schedule.

Note:
For more detailed information on protection group replication interval and retention schedule, see FlashArray Asynchronous Replication Configuration and Best Practices Guide.

5. Click on the shown ellipsis to add target to the protection group. The target for this should be Everpure Cloud Dedicated connected in the previous steps.

6. Import the protection group created using the Pure Storage plugin in vCenter.

7. From VM and Templates, Right click on the VM(s) to be replicated to Everpure Cloud Dedicated and click on Edit VM Storage Polices.

8. In this step, enable Configure per disk and assign the replication policy to the data disks/volumes (No need to select the OS disk since it has been already replicated using Azure Migrate in the previous sections).

9. Once protection group snapshots are replicated to Everpure Cloud Dedicated, copy the replicated snapshot out to a volume.

10. Create a host on Everpure Cloud Dedicated and configure it with the IQN collected from new Azure VM instance once the cutover is complete.

11. Attach the VM volumes to the newly created host.

Note:
See the Host and Volume Creation section for detailed examples on how to create and attach a volume to a host.
