ASAv file exchange to Azure Storage

Oliverrietbrock

Hi Everyone,

 

I want to connect the ASAv to a SMB share in Azure for backup or file tranfer purpos

My steps:

  • Create files share within services: Microsoft.Storage
  • Grant read, write, list, delete permissions
  • Retrieve accesskey (key1) and username from Azure share
  • Grant access to storage service in the vnet->subnet of the ASAv's management interface
    • Beware that changing resource access removes public network availabilty
    • Resoving the storage FQDN address points to public IP's
  • Upload file.txt

 

  • Test ASAv via smb: copy management smb://username:<key1>@host.file.core.windows.net/backup/file.txt   flash: 
  • Result: %Error opening smb://... (no such file or directory)

 

  • Test ASAv via https: copy management https://username:<key1>@host.file.core.windows.net/backup/file.txt   flash:
  • Result: %Error opening https://... (Success)

I noted that the key from Azure is sometimes contain symbols like "+/&" and I believe that might be the issue regarding ASAv.

 

Is there a way to create user credentials seperatly as you have to do it in Linux?

 

I believe one of the options I have to backup is to use the Azure virtual machine backup and restore feature,

or deploying a sftp/scp server in Azure.

 

But thanks if somebody has a solution.
