Posted on by Venkata Pidikiti

Hello,

I have a scenario to install Dynamics 365 9.0 CE instance as multi-server deployment. 2- front end servers, 2 -backend servers, 2- SSRS servers and SQL with Availability. I have planned to deploy all servers at Azure IaaS. I have a question here.

Based on Azure Microsoft documentation, virtual machine scale set can automatically increase or decrease the number of VM instances that run the application.

Ref URL: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machine-scale-sets/virtual-machine-scale-sets-autoscale-overview

Can I use the autoscale feature for Dynamics CRM 365 9.0 On-Premise version multi-server deployment scenario?
If yes, Do I need to follow any separate steps during CRM Installation?

As far as I'm aware, Dynamics 365 has no awareness of autoscale. All server roles except for front end servers are identified for specific servers within the MSCRM_Config database, so I'm pretty sure you couldn't autoscale these servers. It might be possible to autoscale the front end servers, but my guess is that this would be unsupported
