Hyper-V to Azure ASR Replication and Bitlocker Drives
Hello, I've recently started using Azure ASR as a DR solution. We have one customer that requires us to host their data separate from our other data and to keep it encrypted. I've got their data on it's own VHD and it is encrypted with Bitlocker.
I set up out Hyper-V server to replicate to Azure and upon testing the failover I discovered that the encrypted drive is there but there is no data present. I've asked on the MSDN forums and the answer I got was that Bitlocker is not supported with ASR.
My dilemma is I've got to have this drive encrypted but I need to replicate it to and have it available for failover in ASR. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks,
David

What version of Hyper-V on-premises? Are the VMs gen 1 or gen 2?
When the VM is spooled up in Azure do you get the BitLocker Recovery Key black screen prompt?
Is the BitLocker AD management component enabled?
