Hi,
We recently moved our DEV VM from Microsoft managed to Cloud hosted. But our UAT and Production are managed by Microsoft.
Previously when DEV VM are managed by Microsoft to debug production issues we perform DB refresh of UAT from PROD and connect the DEV instance and UAT DB by changing the connection string in web.config in K:\AOSService\..in DEV VM.
This method worked fine but not working now after we moved the DEV VM to cloud. Below is the steps we are doing. Please advice where we are doing wrong. We cannot restore the Prod DB in Dev since the size will be in TB.
Steps:
1) In LCS requested DB access and adding Dev VM IP address in UAT environment page.
2) Change the web.config (based on values got from LCS) in Dev VM to connect UAT DB
Regards,

Hi,
it doesn't matter if your dev environment is in the cloud or in your local infrastructure or MS managed, the process is exactly the same.
But the process has changed a bit if your UAT environment is migrated to Self service topology. You need one more step between your current steps. You need to request Just-in-time access to the UAT database. This is done in the Environment details page in LCS.
