- Log in to the SMS console, and locate the migration task by source server ID on the migration server list page.
- Hover the cursor over the task status. In the displayed dialog box, check the failure cause.
- Check whether the source server meets all migration requirements. For details, see What Information Does SMS Collect About Source Servers?
