@Emad-R just the quckest link on amazon italy:

@Dashrender as a general rule you are right: decreasing too much the delay at the wrong time lets you install 1809. This is why I've not solved.

So I've not solved. This has been my approach:

• decrease the update delay to 90 days (just a random point)
• run win update
• receive 1803
• increase back the delay to 365 days

If you decrease the update now - I would fully expect you to get 1809 from windows update, not 1803.

Only by doing an upgrade to 1803 manually (from now old media) would I expect you to make this middle ground stop.

If you put the delay big enough you cut 1809 out. Also is 1809 already available in the "sane" lane?

Btw, I've actually done this. And I've got 1803.

@scottalanmiller said in KVM with Cockpit on Fedora 29 Network Type Options Greyed Out:

When building a new VM using Cockpit's web interface to KVM on Fedora 29, the Network Type option leaves most options like Bridge to LAN, Generic ethernet connections, and Direct attachment greyed out. Anyone know why?

Did you try with network manager? Any missing package?

So I've not solved. This has been my approach:

• decrease the update delay to 90 days (just a random point)
• run win update
• receive 1803
• increase back the delay to 365 days

My current settings are to delay new features for 365 days... Now if I reduce the delay let say about 100 days... what should I expect in next days?! 1803 to be installed?!
Also I'm on the "ex" businness branch...

As 1809 is out I was considering an upgrade from 1709 to 1803. To stay at current-1.

But I don't find any way to do this.
Is this possible?

@scottalanmiller with any devel tool and namely with more "modern" WPF it is trivial to make big controls which scale with window size or screen resolution.
Simply a lot of SW is badly designed.

@scottalanmiller I've got just 1 conclusion: the pay for their estate. The smaller the cheapest.

K18s doesn't find the pem certificate under the given Path. Log into the machine and check it!

@matteo-nunziati That's pretty bad design if there is no automated way to backup to a remote blob provider or to push said backups to said outside provider. . .

That $399 is sounding incredibly reasonable now.

A main goal of any cloud service from major vendors is to lock in. Try to access a backup in GCP to export data: you can't.
I'm digging a bit to understand if the SQL backup in azure is accessible or managed by any infrastructure account which prevents users to access them directly...

BWT, 399 lifetime is good.

@DustinB3403 said in How can I backup an Azure SQL database to Backblaze B2:

Just to ask the question as I do not have any Azure SQL systems that I touch or even look at.

There is a means to backup the database, correct? But that solution only saves the back on Azure and offers no means of pushing it to a different storage provider?

Yep! Azure manages the DB server and the backups. then they are available in azure storage (blobs in my understanding).

when you go managed you have no way out...
Run a lambda or an instance seems the only way out.

If there was no way out, I would never do it. Just because you fail to grasp basic concepts does not make things like you think.

no way out remaining in the managed layer. when azure manages the db , it manages everything. In my googling there is no single documented feature to avoid local sync to integrate with third party cloud solutions at Azure SQL level. Going out of the SQL server into the OS let's things a bit simplier. The simpliest thing I would try is:

• let azure backup SQL in azure blobs
• run a linux instance
• mount azure blobs as per this doc
• use duplicity to backup the blobs data on backblaze as per this link

SQL Server has also stored procedures and a ton of programming level stuff, but this will turn everything into a more complex thing IMHO.

On the opposite azure functions are way simplier to run but quite limited in functionality. And still programming level stuff rather than sys admin stuff.

That's a managed SQL instance then.

WTF? There is only one "type" of SQL database on Azure.. If this is managed, what the hell are you trying to claim would be unmanaged?

Ah, that explains a lot. I'd normally want to go look at options so I know WTH I'm talking about next time, but Azure.

Unmanaged would be MS SQL running on a host you manage. Weather that's a VPS, "cloud", or whatever.

It is like AWS RDS instances, which are usually not easily accessible but backups can be done easily to S3.

Again moving a dump to storage and than trigger an azure function seems the most feasible even if painful solution.

Btw azure sql should have multiregion backup. Isn't it?! This will prevent DC issues.

Not the issue. a backup on the same provider is not a backup

I still dont understand. It is multiregion. Quite good. It is not on the same physical machine it is distributed all around the world.

I've previously checked out their integration page, but nothing there is Azure.

I would prefer to not have to download it just to upload it, but I will if I have to.

Am I correct in thinking this is one of the managed SQL instances?

No.

WTF?! is this managed or unmanaged?! Btw you can try lambdas and b2 rest api if you are brave... I think they call lambdas something like azure functions
