@pravin135 That’s quite hard to do I would say. If your Jenkins on GCP VM is “empty”(fresh isntall, no build on it). I would say just copy the `jenkins_home` folder from Azure VM to GCP VM If your Jenkins on GCP VM is not “empty”. and you want to mirage I’m not sure how we can achive it. Perhap you could duplicate the Jenkins VM and play around with the cloned VM. Not sure what operation needed to take, maybe copy file, folder, editing the configution file,… mannual stuff. Hope you understand what I mean ---
