Title
Clarification needed about Azure Blob for end point. -
Description
Currently are using file share for end point. In new environment Azure blob storage will be implemented.
What is required in Azure to set it up?
Which tier need Hot /cold or archive?
-
Resolution
To use Azure blob storage for end point, please perform these steps:
1) Create a new profile endpoint
2) Save the profile and then to provide BLOB migration from old endpoint [SMB - FileSystem] to a new endpoint [Azure BLOB Container - FileSystem.
3) For the tier, it depends on access frequency. StoragePoint can work with all tier (Hot, Cold, Archive).
Note: This new "Azure" endpoint needs to be created under the same profile as "FileSystem" endpoint. Then this profile migrate timer job can be use to migrate all BLOBs from previous "FileSystem" endpoint to new "Azure" endpoint.
