Pls, help.

    Hello @Roman Urmanic/ @Admin SKDK,

    As per the error, The move resources request does not contain all the dependent resources.

    This means you're trying to move a resource (e.g NIC or disk ) without including its dependencies (like the associated network interface ).

    The Recovery Services vault (vault-lst59vju) contains unsupported container types (StorageContainer), which cannot be moved. You must remove or delete these containers before retrying the move.

    For Missing Dependencies:

    Identify all dependent resources (e.g., NICs, NSGs, disks) linked to the resource you're moving.

    Use Azure CLI or Portal to view dependencies:

    az resource show --ids 
    

    For Recovery Services Vault Issue:

    Go to the Recovery Services Vault in the Azure Portal.

    Under Backup Items, look for any containers of type StorageContainer.

    Stop backup and delete the container if it's no longer needed.

    Only then can you proceed with moving the vault.

    Alternatively, Use the Azure Resource Mover tool in the portal—it helps identify and include dependencies automatically.
