You manage an Azure environment containing a Standard storage account named sa-logistics-prod in the West Europe region. The storage account hosts an SMB file share named shipments and has its firewall configured to restrict access to 'Selected networks'. Backups of the shipments file share are configured using a Recovery Services vault named rsv-logistics. An administrator named Admin1 is assigned the Backup Operator role at the resource group level. Admin1 attempts to restore files to the original location using Azure Backup but receives an access denied error. Which of the following configuration changes is required to allow the restore operation to succeed?
- AAssign the Storage File Data Privileged Contributor role to Admin1 for sa-logistics-prod.
- Enable the 'Allow trusted Microsoft services to access this storage account' setting on the firewall of sa-logistics-prod.Cevap
- CConfigure a Private Endpoint for the Recovery Services vault in the virtual network connected to sa-logistics-prod.
- DAssign the Owner role to Admin1 for the Recovery Services vault rsv-logistics.
Cevap
Enable the 'Allow trusted Microsoft services to access this storage account' setting on the firewall of sa-logistics-prod.
To restore files to an Azure file share where the hosting storage account restricts access to selected networks, the Azure Backup service must be allowed to bypass the firewall. Enabling the 'Allow trusted Microsoft services to access this storage account' exception on the storage account firewall grants the Azure Backup service the necessary network-level access to perform the restore. Because the administrator already holds the Backup Operator role, they have sufficient control plane rights to start the restore, but the network boundary blocks the data plane operations.
