It's important to understand the impact of a resource move on the insights Storage Discovery provides to you.
1819
Storage Discovery aggregates information about different storage resources and presents them as insights in a Discovery workspace resource. Which storage resources are in scope is defined in the workspace resource itself.
19-
When planning to make changes to either the Discovery workspace resource or the storage accounts it provides insights for, it's important to understand the impact of such a move and consider the implications for the insights a Discovery workspace generates.

## Move a workspace to a different subscription or resource group
2727

Storage Discovery workspace resources can move to different resource groups or subscriptions within the same Microsoft Entra tenant. When a workspace moves in this way, the Storage Discovery service will work uninterrupted and workspaces continue to aggregate the same insights as they did before the move.

> Some users of a moving workspace may have inherited access to the workspace from the original resource group or subscription the workspace was deployed in. Such users may loose access when the workspace moves to a subscription or resource group they don't have access to. Users with direct Role Based Access Control (RBAC) role assignments to a Discovery workspace are will retain access post resource move. In rare cases, Azure Policy may be configured to deny access to the workspace in the new location.

## Move a storage resource to a different subscription or resource group
3434

3535
Moving a storage resource to a new resource group or subscription in the same Microsoft Entra tenant can move that resource into or out of the scope of a Discovery workspace.
3636
When such a storage resource moves, one of two results can occur:
3737

38-
1. The storage resource moves to a location not covered by the workspace root configuration. In this case, the impact on your insights will be changes to Discovery reports like: `Capacity`, `Activity`, and others. The storage resource and it's data volume will no longer appear. Such a resource move has the same impact on reports as if the resource is deleted. However, the insights history in your workspace will retain the resource insights. As an example, such a move could manifest as a dip in overall used-capacity graph.
39-
1. The storage resource moves a to new location that is also covered by the root configuration of the same workspace. Such a move also has an impact on the reports of this workspace. For instance, a distribution of capacity by subscription may show a dip for the original subscription and a jump for the subscription the storage resource moved to. It's also important to note that Storage Discovery does not change the resource URI in it's historic data. If you are observing insights for the resource prior to move then those insights will stop when the move occurs, and insights for the moved stored resource (now has a different resource ID) will start. That means you can't connect history of this individual storage account resource. A move starts recording new history as if this storage resource was just created instead of moved.

## Move a workspace to a different Microsoft Entra tenant

4343
Moving a Discovery workspace to a new tenant is not supported. Tenant moves are accomplished by moving an entire subscription with all it's resource groups and resources to another tenant. If a Discovery workspace moves in this way:

1. Any explicit Role Based Access Control (RBAC) role assignments are no longer functioning.
4646
1. The workspace immediately stops aggregating insights about storage resources that are now located in a different tenant.

1. Insights collected about any storage resources prior to the move become unavailable and cannot be recovered.

> Data loss occurs when you move a Discovery workspace to a different Microsoft Entra tenant. All previously aggregated insights become unavailable and cannot be recovered, even if the workspace moves back to the original tenant.

## Move a storage resource to a different Microsoft Entra tenant

This scenario is very comparable with a storage resource moving out of the bounds of a workspace root configuration.

The storage resource leaves to a location not covered by the workspace root configuration. In this case, the impact on your insights will be changes to Discovery reports like: `Capacity`, `Activity`, and others. The storage resource and it's data volume will no longer appear. However, it will remain in the insights history of your workspace. As an example, such a move could manifest as a dip in an overall used-capacity graph.
