    Hi @Sonu jatav

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A thanks for posting your question.

    As I understand it, you're unable to find the backup files in the storage account.

    If you're looking to persist data, you can consider using the managed Azure Cache for Redis service.

    Choose a storage account in the same region and subscription as the cache. A Premium Storage account is recommended due to its higher throughput. Additionally, we strongly recommend disabling the soft delete feature on the storage account, as it can increase storage costs. For more information, please refer to the relevant documentation.

    Note that data persistence is not available in the Basic and Standard tiers.

    Please let me know if you need any more information. We are happy to assist

    I also have an Azure cache for Redis (Premium instance) with persistence turned on.

    But nothing is appearing in the associated storage account (which is StorageV2).

    Also every time I attempt to export the cache I get the error telling me there's an RDB export currently in progress. I have turned off persistence and tried again but get the same error message.

    I have added both system and user assigned identities to the cache and granted them 'Storage Blob Data Contributor.' in the storage account.

    Both the redis cache and the storage account are in the same subscription and region.

    The storage account is not public and it's network has both 'Allow trusted Microsoft services to access this resource' ticked and Resource instances has Microsoft.Cache/Redis with the redis instance name.

    I've run out of options to check so am posting here for help.
