Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is endorsed by Azure in GA but is not listed in supported operating system for both Azure Backup and ASR. What are the plans for this? thanks, Syam N

Hello @Syamchand R Nair Thank you for contacting us through Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to help! You are correct "Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is endorsed by Azure in GA" and the official announcement is here - https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/updates/generally-available-ubuntu-2404-lts-for-azure-virtual-machines/ Regarding your question about Ubuntu 24.04 LTS support for Azure Backup and Azure Site Recovery is still in discussion. This has been confirmed by the product group: currently, it is not supported and there is not a definite timeliness to share publicly. I shall get back to this thread once there is any update from the product teams. Thanks once again for bringing this to our attention! If the response helped, do " Accept Answer " and up-vote it

Anything new here? 24.04 was released back in April and we'd love to be able to leverage ASR for a production machine we just put into the wild.

Is there ASR Mobility agent for Ubuntu 24.04 yet?
Or is there any work around to make Ubuntu 24.04 work with ASR?

Thanks a lot.
