--- title: Manage resources that are created during the virtual machine move process in Azure Resource Mover description: Learn how to manage resources that are created during the virtual machine move process in Azure Resource Mover. author: RochakSingh-blr ms.author: v-rochak2 ms.date: 07/31/2025 ms.service: azure-resource-mover ms.topic: how-to ms.custom: engagement-fy23 # Customer intent: "As a cloud administrator, I want to manage and delete resources created during the virtual machine move process, so that I can maintain an organized and efficient resource environment following migrations." --- # Manage resources created for the virtual machine move This article describes how to manage resources that are created explicitly by [Azure Resource Mover](overview.md) to facilitate the virtual machine move process. After moving virtual machines across regions, there are a number of resources created by Resource Mover that should be cleaned up manually. ## Delete resources created for virtual machine move Manually delete the move collection, and Site Recovery resources created for the virtual machine move. 1. Review the resources in resource group ```ResourceMoverRG-<sourceregion>-<target-region>-<metadataRegionShortName>```. 2. Check that the virtual machine and all other source resources in the move collection have been moved/deleted. This ensures that there are no pending resources using them. 2. Delete these resources. - The move collection name is ```movecollection-<sourceregion>-<target-region>-<metadata-region>```. - The cache storage account name is ```resmovecache<guid>``` - The vault name is ```ResourceMove-<sourceregion>-<target-region>-GUID```. ## Next steps Try [moving a virtual machine](tutorial-move-region-virtual-machines.md) to another region with Resource Mover.
