When using Availability sets and Virtual Machine Scale Sets with Azure shared disks, storage fault domain alignment with virtual machine fault domain isn't enforced for the shared data disk. When using proximity placement groups (PPG), all virtual machines sharing a disk must be part of the same...
For virtual machines, the disk is usually dynamically allocated, meaning, the space from your physical storage drive is consumed as much as the OS and its files add up with time. In some type of virtual disk, it reserves the entire space you specify. So, when you do that, check the fr...

Zone-to-zone disaster recovery isn't supported for VMs that have managed disks via zone-redundant storage (ZRS). Regions that don't support Azure availability zones also don't support Azure Site Recovery zone-to-zone replication. For Azure Site Recovery zone-to-zone replication to wor...
Enables replicating virtual machines that require resynchronization to be resynchronized automatically. (For example, a virtual machine requires resynchronization if the primary server shuts down abruptly). Resynchronization requires significant storage and processing resources. We recommended scheduling resynchroniz...
Caching in the virtual storage stack Error 0x80070005 when exporting VMs to network share Enabling MPIO with SAS disks decreases performance Hyper-V replication is suspended at system shutdown Can't import a virtual machine Event 7000 after installing the Hyper-V role Recommended updates for Windows...
Power off the virtual machine. In the .vmx file that defines the virtual machine, add an entry similar to: scsiX:Y.sharing = "multi-writer" where X is the controller ID and Y is the disk ID on that controller. Add this line for each virtual disk that needs to be share. For exampl...
It's useful when troubleshooting issues where settings or files aren't replicating as expected. Typically, this process is run on at least two different client machines to test replication. More information First, identify the scenario you wish to trace. The two main variations ...
If your instance store volume is much larger (for example, 350 GB), you may consider partitioning the volume with a smaller swap partition of 4-8 GB and the rest for a data volume. Note This procedure applies only to instance types that support instance storage. For a list of supported ...
