I am getting the prompt above in the serial console connection to a GCP VM after using Double Take replication software from on-premise to GCP. Any idea what happened?

Solved! Go to Solution.
The message indicates that UEFI detected Windows Boot Manager. The message is not necessarily an error. What you care about is the messages after especially from serial port2. You can verify this output as an example.
As for migration from on-prem it might be better to use the Compute Engine migration tool as you may have issues with licenses (current approach). Generally you can not bring your own license (the Operating system physical core license) unless if you are using sole-tenant nodes and that might not fit your needs in terms of costs as you are reserving the physical machine as a whole.
