Azure filesync Server Registration Issue

Azure FileSync Server registration - Unable to discover

 

Registering a server with Azure File Sync establishes a trust relationship between Windows Server and Azure. This relationship can then be used to create server endpoints on the server, which represent specific folders that should be synced with an Azure file share

Register a server with Storage Sync Service

Before a server can be used as a server endpoint in an Azure File Sync sync group, it must be registered with a Storage Sync Service. 

As part of Azure file sync registration setup, when we run Azure FileSync server registration in Non internet facing workloads, you may struck at the following window (Azure Resources Manager (ARM) discover URL)

 

These discover URLS are region specific , more details find the link below
                 https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/azure/storage/file-sync/file-sync-firewall-and-proxy

 
However, if you provided region specific URL's on Non-Internet facing servers, it prompt below error

 

Observations:-

Azure File Sync server registration services are unable to communicate to backed Azure URLs, due to this server being unable to reach Azure Resource Manager Discovery URLs

If the VM is not allowed to access internet, we need to ensure that all the required URL and ports are open in Firewall

URL’s need to be whitelisted in the Firewall

*.afs.azure.net  : 443
*.one.microsoft.com : 443
*.core.windows.net : 443
*.go.microsoft.com : 443
*.aadcdn.msftauth.net : 334

Configure and monitor JMX metrics for your Java application using Azure Application Insights.                    JMX (Java Management Extensions) metrics are a set of performance and resource utilization data points that can be collected from a Java application. JMX provides a standardized way to manage and monitor applications, system objects, devices, and service-oriented networks. JMX metrics typically include: Memory Usage : Information about heap and non-heap memory usage. Garbage Collection : Data on the frequency and duration of garbage collection. Thread Usage : Details on the number of active, idle, and blocked threads. Class Loading : Metrics on the number of loaded, unloaded, and total classes in the JVM. CPU Usage : Information on the CPU usage by the JVM process. Custom Metrics : Application-specific metrics that can be defined by the developer, such as request counts, error rates, and transaction times. ...

Convert Azure VM Security Type - Trusted Launch to Standard to Enable ASR on existing workloads.

                                        This document outlines the process for changing the Azure VM Security Type from Trusted Launch to Standard to enable Azure Site Recovery (ASR) on existing workloads. Trusted Launch is a way to enable foundational compute security on Azure Generation 2 VMs. It protects your virtual machines against advanced and persistent attack techniques like boot kits and rootkits by combining infrastructure technologies such as Secure Boot, vTPM, and Boot Integrity Monitoring. Currently, Azure Site Recovery does not support Trusted Launch VMs, despite the Azure Portal defaulting to Trusted Launch when deploying virtual machines. This limitation has caused issues for customers who build environments with the default Trusted Launch setting, only to discover that ASR cannot be enabled. As a result, the entire environment often needs to be rebuilt...

  Azure Storage Mover Azure Storage Mover is a new, fully managed migration service that enables you to migrate your files and folders to Azure Storage while minimizing downtime for your workload. Storage Mover can use for different migration scenarios such as lift-and-shift , and for cloud migrations that you have to repeat occasionally. A single storage mover resource deployed to your subscription can be used to manage migrations for your source shares located in different parts of the world. Azure Storage Mover is a hybrid cloud service. Hybrid services have both a cloud service component and an infrastructure component. The service administrator runs the infrastructure component in their corporate environment.    The current Azure Storage Mover release supports only certain, specific source-target pair migration path scenarios. The following table identifies the currently supported source-to-destination scenarios: When migrating data from a source endpoint using the...
