How update the windows machine on Azure.

Hi,

I am new to Azure and we are trying to find if there any way to install the windows patches other than from the windows server end.  I have find MS article and according to my understand one way is to install the patches using Security center and another way is Azure update management.  We have already enable the Security center Basic tier for our tenant and it shows the pending updates and guide to apply the patches. I heard we can do patching using update management.  Could you please help me to understand on these scenario and what would be pron and cons according to the cost and options.

Thank You.

Traffic Stops When Disconnecting RDP

Hi

I have a VM that consumes some videos. When I disconnect from RDP and re-connect after a while I see that video is not consumed as expected.

For example I am connecting RDP and starting a video. Then disconnecting RDP. Re-connecting after 5 hours which means 5 hours of video should be consumed but I can see only very less of minutes (i.e. 1 hours) consumed.

Can you help ?

Encrypt a VM

Hi ,

I was wondering if you can please help me out me with somehing?

I've 2 quick questions:

  1. I'm trying to encrypt a VM. Is there anyway that i can do it using the Azure Portal?

       2. I'm trying to encrypt the VM by connecting to the Azure Powershell but having an issue. Below is the script that i'm using:

 

$KVRGname = ''AZ300-Encyption-RG'';

  $VMRGName = 'AZ300-Encyption-RG';

  $vmName = 'AZ300EncyptVM2';

  $KeyVaultName = 'AZ300-Encyption-KeyVault';

  $KeyVault = Get-AzKeyVault -VaultName $KeyVaultName -ResourceGroupName $KVRGname;

  $diskEncryptionKeyVaultUrl =  $KeyVault.VaultUri;

  $KeyVaultResourceId = $KeyVault.ResourceId;

  Set-AzVMDiskEncryptionExtension -ResourceGroupName $VMRGname -VMName $vmName -DiskEncryptionKeyVaultUrl   $diskEncryptionKeyVaultUrl -DiskEncryptionKeyVaultId $KeyVaultResourceId;

The problem is that, the above two parameters are not returning anything from $KeyVault.VaultUri and $KeyVault.ResourceId and so i keep on getting the 'Null' value error. I can however, make it work by giving the values in manually. Below are the two parameters:

$diskEncryptionKeyVaultUrl =  $KeyVault.VaultUri;

$KeyVaultResourceId = $KeyVault.ResourceId;


Let me know please if anyone can help.

Windows updates in a lockdown environment

Hi,

I have a Windows Server 2019 Azure VM in a lockdown vnet. I only allow certain outbound traffic from the VM. What do I need to allow in order to have the VM updated on regular basis? The outbound connection is controlled by Network Security Group the VM belongs to. It seems there is no Windows Update service tag to utilize. I can't imagine open up the outbound connections based on a list of IPs. How do people get around this?

Thank you.

Unable to install SQL Server SP3 on a Windows Server 2012 R2 & SQL Server 2014 Azure VM

$

I have setup a Windows Server 2012 R2 + SQL Server 2014 VM (using Image Gallery) several years ago. However, it didn't update SQL Server 2014 SP3 automatically even now. When I tried to install SP3 manually, it rolled back after restart.

I tried to enable Automated Patching feature on Azure Portal, and it displayed "Deployment succeeded" message on the Notifications, but it goes back to Disable if I revisit the setting page.

I'm not familiar with Azure and not sure where to check. How to fix this problem?



Missing sizing plans

I have one account with VM sizing plan:

Standard B2s (2 vcpus, 4 GiB memory) which cost 35 usd

In another account I have old VM with plan:

Standard A2 v2 (2 vcpus, 4 GiB memory) which cost 48 EURO

I wanted to change the A2 plan to B2 but I don't have it in the options.

Why one account is more expansive than the other?

Thanks

Windows Virtual Desktops

HI, I have gone through the documentation and I'm at the point where I am creating my Windows Virtual Desktop - Provision a host pool. When I go through the steps and I reach the end, I get this error Message:

Deployment template validation failed: 'The provided value 'new' for the template parameter 'newOrExistingVnet' at line '149' and column '26' is not valid. The parameter value is not part of the allowed value(s): 'existing'.'.

I'm not sure, but the 'new' that I see during creation is the virtual network and vmsubnet section.

I tried creating virtual network for my VMs yet they are not detected. In that section, I selected 'create new and avail I get the same error message.

If someone can help.

Can a IaaS with "premium disks" migrate between different availability zones within the same region?

Can a IaaS with "premium disks" migrate between different availability zones within the same region?

If we wanted to have HA between servers would it be best to use scale sets or a LB between avail zones(AZ) within the same region?   Is there a minimum # of IaaS for a scale set?,... can we do this with two IaaS in a scale set?

I am thinking a LB cannot migrate between AZs within the same region hence would not provide HA?,... please confirm.

Need help running Topaz Gigapixel AI on a VM

$

I use a photo enhancement software called Topaz Gigapixel AI. I would like to use it on a VM because it requires a lot of processing from my GPU. It is possible to download it to the VM, but nothing happens when I try to run it. It won't open. I think it's because Topaz requires a GPU and when no physical GPU is detected (I used the N-Series VM and tried to find the GPU using CPUID, but it wasn't listed) it won't start. I have no idea how to fix this or trick the software. I am new to using VM's so maybe I am missing something obvious. Any help is appreciated! There is a free version available for download that is an exact copy of the real version, but you only have it for 30 days. You can easily replicate my situation by downloading it from their website for free.
