Issue with creating Location Profile using Azure Storage [Location Option Missing!]

nantheless wrote:

After successful installation in a POC environment, I am trying to add a new location profile using Azure Profile. K10 is installed on AKS environment. This issue is definitely not related to Azure storage account since i am able to add the Azure Storage location profile from K10 instance in my lab. Not sure what is going on…

 

 

You don’t need to specify the location any more as it is specified when you create the storage account. 

Just to highlight, since 5.0.7 you need to create the container/bucket in advance before you create the location profile. 

It just doesn’t allow me to proceed. With no error messages. Purely stating “Please correct the problems above”. No issue on 5.0.6

Hello @nantheless 

Thank you contacting Kasten by Veeam support.

Checking on our side regarding the location on Azure profile from 5.0.7, will update as soon as possible.

Hello @nantheless 

There is a bug in the UI on 5.0.7 regarding Azure storage location profile and will be fixed in the next release.

For now if you are using 5.0.7 you can create your location profile using CLI, but keep in mind that from 5.0.7 the bucket (container on azure storage) must be created before creating the location profile on K10:
 

1. Create a secret with the credentials:

   kubectl create secret generic k10-azurestorage-secret \
         --namespace kasten-io \
         --type secrets.kanister.io/azure \
         --from-literal=azure_storage_account_id=AZURE_STORAGE_ACCOUNT_NAME \
         --from-literal=azure_storage_key=AZURE_STORAGE_KEY

2. Create an yaml for the profile: (replace PROFILE_NAME,BUCKET_NAME and region)

   cat <<EOF >>azure-profile.yaml
   apiVersion: config.kio.kasten.io/v1alpha1
   kind: Profile
   metadata:
     generation: 2
     name: PROFILE_NAME
     namespace: kasten-io
   spec:
     locationSpec:
       credential:
         secret:
           apiVersion: v1
           kind: secret
           name: k10-azurestorage-secret
           namespace: kasten-io
         secretType: AzStorageAccount
       objectStore:
         name: BUCKET_NAME
         objectStoreType: AZ
         region: West US 3
   EOF

3. Apply the yaml:

   kubectl apply -f azure-profile.yaml

After that you can check on your dashboard if the profile is created.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
