Description

When deploying your SQL Server on Azure Virtual Machines using Azure Marketplace images, you can configure storage directly from the SQL Server for Azure Virtual Machine blade in the Azure portal. This is restricted to allowing an increase in the space for data and log storage pools but with the ability to configure tempdb.

  • Perform common DBA tasks directly from the SQL VM blade such as adding data files of equal size and acting when the file sizes are not equal.
  • Increase storage space using tempdb configuration blade when using on a remote disk.
