I'd like to use Azure Site Recovery to backup our Azure VMs that are running MySQL Server. The problem is that I can't find if Azure Site Recovery will properly backup MySQL databases on Windows, nor can I find any mention if MySQL Server does or does not support Volume Shadow Copy (if we need to stop MySQL process).
MySQL doesn't support Volume Shadow Copy as indicated here: https://forums.mysql.com/read.php?28,689212,689214#msg-689214
Hence, Azure Site Recovery can't backup MySQL databases natively.
