Azure v6.24.0 published on Wednesday, Jun 18, 2025 by Pulumi
pulumi/pulumi-azure

    Manages registration of a storage account with Azure Backup. Storage accounts must be registered with an Azure Recovery Vault in order to backup file shares within the storage account. Registering a storage account with a vault creates what is known as a protection container within Azure Recovery Services. Once the container is created, Azure file shares within the storage account can be backed up using the azure.backup.ProtectedFileShare resource.

    Example Usage

    import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as azure from "@pulumi/azure";

const example = new azure.core.ResourceGroup("example", {
    name: "tfex-network-mapping-primary",
    location: "West Europe",
});
const vault = new azure.recoveryservices.Vault("vault", {
    name: "example-recovery-vault",
    location: example.location,
    resourceGroupName: example.name,
    sku: "Standard",
});
const sa = new azure.storage.Account("sa", {
    name: "examplesa",
    location: example.location,
    resourceGroupName: example.name,
    accountTier: "Standard",
    accountReplicationType: "LRS",
});
const container = new azure.backup.ContainerStorageAccount("container", {
    resourceGroupName: example.name,
    recoveryVaultName: vault.name,
    storageAccountId: sa.id,
});
