    Yes, it is possible to move Azure Arc-enabled servers and associated resources, such as maintenance configurations and resource groups, to a new subscription. However, there are certain requirements and limitations to be aware of before proceeding with the move.

    Steps to Move Resources:

    1. Ensure Prerequisites: Make sure that the Azure Arc-enabled server and all related resources are in the same resource group. The new subscription or resource group must meet all prerequisites for Azure Arc.
    2. Disable Features: If you have features like Microsoft Purview or best practices assessment enabled, you must disable them in the compliance portal before moving.
    3. Move Resources: In the Azure portal, locate the resource group containing the Azure Arc-enabled server. Select the server resource type Machine - Azure Arc and choose to move it to another resource group or subscription.
    4. Reconfigure After Move: After moving, you will need to re-enable any features that were disabled and configure the SQL Server license and extended security update license in the new location.

    Recommendations:

    • Review Known Limitations: Before moving, review any known limitations related to moving resources to ensure compliance and avoid issues post-move.
    • Plan for Downtime: Be prepared for potential downtime during the move, as it may take up to one hour for resources to reflect their new location in the portal.

    By following these steps, you can successfully move your Azure Arc-enabled servers and associated configurations to a new subscription while adhering to the necessary guidelines.
