I found a way of migrating the resources first using Azure Resource Mover and then Switch the subscription. But still few resources cant be moved like Public IP (Standard SKU). This migration does have a downtime(https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/management/move-resource-group-and-subscription#validate-move).....But is there any way in which I can do this cross-subscription migration with Zero Downtime?

Searched the whole web but every solution says this Cross Subscription Migration is to be done using Azure Resource Mover ONLY.

Would be very helpful if I could get any leads on this!

Thanks!

• According to your situation, subscription migration does happen with no downtime for the migrating resources as stated in the official Microsoft documentation. Only write and delete operations are blocked during the migration activity. Screenshot attached below for reference.

Azure Resource Mover

• Also, for migrating public IP addresses with standard SKUs, that cannot be done through Azure Resource Mover except for the basic SKUs public IP addresses. Please find the below links for reference. And as for migrating resources within Azure but between different subscriptions, currently only Azure Resource Mover is the only tool available since Azure Fabric is common between them.

Please refer below document links regarding moving the public IP addresses: -
