Azure Backup Center
- This is a central service for backup of many Azure Services including virtual machines, Disks. Refer Here for the official docs
- Create a vault:
- Backup Vault
- Backup Vault
- Now ensure you have a vm with data disks attached. In this demonstration we have a vm with
- os disk: 30 GB
- Data disk 1 : 1 GB
- Data disk 2 : 2 GB
- Ensure the disks are formatted and mounted to vm with some data in it
- Lets configure backup for managed disks
- Datasources tab refers to the source resources, here add data disks (we skipped os disk intentionally)
- We need a dedicated resource group for storing snapshots (in this case i’m using the same resource group as vm’s)
- We have triggered the manual backup for 2 disks
- Note: We will keep this vm and backups up till next session.
Azure File Share
- Azure provides file share to support network file share disks. Refer Here for official docs
- Creating an Azure File share Refer Here
- As discussed in class we were able to mount on two vms.
