I want to run my application with AKS cluster(version - 1.18.14) with the dependency of standard load balancer to create multiple node pools. But, the standard load balancer is creating public IP address. which is not suitable for my application. Because my application is private not public. Is there any way to "create Standard load balancer without public IP address in Azure?" Thanks.10KViews0likes5CommentsAzure Update management - error HRESULT: 0x80072F8F
Azure Update management not working Environment: Azure Windows based VM Forced Tunnelling Onpremise Firewall supports only IP Addresses Update management error: AssessmentError Exception from HRESULT: 0x80072F8F AssessmentErrorStackTrace System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80072F8F): Exception from HRESULT: 0x80072F8F at Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Mom.Modules.ChangeTracking.WUA.IUpdateSearcher2.EndSearch(ISearchJob searchJob) at Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Advisor.PatchManagement.WindowsUpdateHelper.GetUpdateSnapshot(TimeSpan timeout, Boolean onlineSearch, DateTime lastTimeUpdateApplied, IAutomaticUpdates2 automaticUpdates, UpdateModuleState state) Troubleshooting: Due to Forced Tunnelling the traffic has to go to the onpremise FW. Unfortunately the onpremise FW allows only IP Addresses and as per the following article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/automation/automation-network-configuration#update-management-and-change-tracking-and-inventory It suggest to allow port 443 for url: Azure Public *.ods.opinsights.azure.com *.oms.opinsights.azure.com *.blob.core.windows.net *.azure-automation.net & *.oms.opinsights.azure.com Though, no IP address that I can NSlookup for *.azure-automation.net” Therefore, trying the alternate approach: Tried enabling service Tags via Azure Firewall, but as the traffic still goes to Onpremise FW we either need the IP Address for the URL to be allowed Else, use User Defined Route (UDR) to direct the Traffic for Service TAGS: “Azure Monitor” & “GuestAndHybridManagement“ via UDR and allowed the same using CLI, still no good. Checking for suggestions. Thanks in advance to reading through.5.9KViews0likes0CommentsAzure Pricing Rearrange Services

Hello, we use Azure Backup for several onpremise Windows Servers. What is the best method to get notified (preferred by E-mail) if there is an update for the Azure Backup Agent? Currently I only get notified, when I start the Backup Agent console on a server - this usually happens only, if I have to recover some data. Is there a website where I can see which is the latest version of the Backup Agent (so I could use for example a Python script to check for website updates)? This website (https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/52073.microsoft-azure-recovery-services-list-of-agent-versions.aspx) doesn't seem to get regular updates. Thank you in advance. 🙂 Best regards, Tim925Views0likes0CommentsCant Enable Update Management for Azure VMs

At Microsoft Ignite 2018, Microsoft announced the integration of Azure Update and Configuration Management on Azure Stack. This is a perfect example how Azure services from the public cloud can be extended into your datacenter using Azure Stack. Azure Update and Configuration Management brings Azure Update Management, Change Tracking and Inventory to your Azure Stack VMs. In the case of Azure Stack, the backend services and orchestrator like Azure Automation and Log Analytics, will remain to run in Azure, but it lets you connect your VMs running on Azure Stack.
