Hi,
Please can you confirm if FMC H.A is supported on Azure. I am running version 7.2
On one document is not mentioning Azure, and on the other it is mentioning Azure:
According to the 7.2 FMC Admin guide, H.A is only supported on Vmware, AWS and OCI, but not mentioned for Azure.
Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center Administration Guide, 7.2 - High Availability [Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center] - Cisco
Virtual Platform Requirements
Requirements for establishing high availability (HA) using two management center virtual virtual appliances:
- Supported on management center virtual for VMware, AWS, and OCI.
- Supported on management center virtual 10, 25, and 300. Not supported on management center virtual 2.
- The high availability pair must have the same device management capacity. For example, you cannot pair the management center virtual 25 with the management center virtual 300.
- To manage threat defense devices, you need two identically licensed management center virtual instances, as well as one threat defense entitlement for each managed device. If you are managing Version 7.0 and earlier Classic devices only, you do not need management center virtual entitlements. For more information, see License Requirements for Management Center High Availability Configurations.

On the FMC Getting Starting guide it is mentioned it is supported on Azure
Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center Virtual Getting Started Guide - Deploy the Management Center Virtual On the Microsoft Azure Cloud [Cisco Secure Firewall Management Center Virtual] - Cisco
High Availability support
- Management Center Virtual High Availability (HA) is supported on the management center virtual models.
- To establish the management center virtual HA, management center virtual requires an extra management center virtual license entitlement for each Secure Firewall Threat Defense (formerly Firepower Threat Defense) device that it manages in the HA configuration. However, the required threat defense feature license entitlement for each threat defense device has no change regardless of the management center virtual HA configuration. See License Requirements for threat defense devices in a High Availability Pair in the Secure Firewall Management Center Device Configuration Guide for guidelines about licensing.
- If you break the management center virtual HA pair, the extra management center virtual license entitlement is released, and you need only one entitlement for each threat defense device. See High Availability in the Secure Firewall Management Center Device Configuration Guide for more information and guidelines about high availability.
