Correct Answer: C The Virtual hard disk is VHDx, it should be formated to VHD before migration from on-premises to Azure. Azure supports only generation 1 VMs that are in the VHD file format and have a fixed sized disk. The maximum size allowed for the VHD is 1,023 GB. You can convert a generation 1 VM from the VHDX file system to VHD and from a dynamically expanding disk to fixed-sized.

Answer is still correct but now Azure supports both generation 1 and generation 2 machines and the maximum size is now 2 TB for a OS generation 1.

Slight update to mlantonis answer since it was written 2.5 years ago: Azure supports BOTH generation 1 and generation 2 VMs that are in VHD file format and that have a fixed-size disk. When the answer was written, generation 2 VHD was not supported. Ref: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/prepare-for-upload-vhd-image
