Hi Baber,
Sorry for my mistake to suggest you open a service request for this issue. Actually you need to open a support ticket with Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations support team.
I have not tried because I don't see why MS would give you extra space for free if there is another way to do this. But try and update this thread so we would know if it is possible.
Hi Ada,
In LCS Service request, the DEV environment is not showing in the Environment name drop down. Any clue what could be the issue ?
Thanks,
Baber.
Hi Ievgen,
Thanks a lot for your help. I will take a look at this, but in the meantime can you please confirm if I can raise a support request to increase drive space on Tier1 DEV Sandbox environment ? I am asking this, because in LCS support -> Service request tab, if I click add and select Other request, then under Environment name drop down, just TEST environment name is showing but not the DEV one. I wanted to request the increase of disk space on DEV VM through LCS support.
Next step after Tier 1 is data upgrade in Tier 2 anyway, so you can easily skip it, but if you want here is first article I found www.sqlshack.com/how-to-connect-and-perform-a-sql-server-database-restore-from-azure-blob-storage
Hi Ievgen,
I have the environments using Option 1 as I mentioned earlier. Thanks a lot for confirming that I cannot see the VMs on Azure portal because it is MS managed, I have spent so much time to find out why the VMs are not showing under Azure portal. Now coming to my question, can you please further elaborate how I can restore the database to SQL server on 'DEVELOP and TEST' sanbox machine. You said to restore it directly to Tier 2 from BLOB. I didn't get this, can you please provide some link where this process is explained ? As per my knowledge, the DEVELOP and TEST environment is Tier 1 Sandbox environment and I want to perform all the upgrade task on this machine.
Thanks,
Baber.
Hi Ada,
Have already checked this, and tried to setup Azure connector but it requires Azure subscription Id to be provided which I can't see in Azure portal.
Thanks,
Baber.
So we need to start from the basics then. There are 2 ways to get Azure hosted Tier 1 environment:
1) Buy 20 licenses and get free Tier 1 box where you do not have admin rights and it sits in Azure subscription managed by Microsoft. Because this subscription is managed by MS you cannot see it in Azure portal and cannot do anything with it. Then follow my advice from previous post and restore it directly to Tier 2 from BLOB.
2) Create your own Azure subscription and deploy dev, test or demo VM, during deployment you can select VM size and change it later in Azure portal.
So which one do you have?
Hi Ievgen,
I have clearly mentioned in my previous response that D365 VM is under client's Azure subscription. My client purchased Dynamics 365 Unified operations license (minimum 20 users). Client admin have given me rights to deploy/redeploy environments, not exaclty sure what do you mean by MS managed. I assume that if I login with same credentials on Azure portal, I would be able to see the VMs there and increase disk space using the process described above by Sukrut. But I cannot see any VMs neither any subscription is showing when I logged in with my user. Is there anything I might be missing ?
Thanks,
Baber.
