-When you configure the distributed AG with a SQL Server migration target that is a higher version than the source, the seeding and failover modes must be set to `MANUAL`. Additionally, you must manually perform a full and transaction log back up of the source database from the primary AG and then manually restore it, along with the transaction log, to the secondary AG. To learn more, review the [manual seeding](configure-distributed-availability-groups.md?tabs=manual#create-distributed-availability-group-on-first-cluster) steps to configure your distributed AG.
