how to install self hosted integration runtime on vm scale set

Question

Is it possible to host Data Factory Self Hosted Integration Runtime on Virtual Machine Scale Sets (VMSS) so it auto-handles the scaling of runtime?

Answer 1

Hello @florentpousserot131313,

Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to host self-hosted IR on Virtual Machine Scale Sets.

A self-hosted integration runtime can be associated with multiple on-premises machines or Virtual Machines in Azure. These machines are called nodes. You can have up to four nodes associated with a self-hosted integration runtime.

For more details, refer “Considerations for using a self-hosted IR”.

I would suggest you to provide feedback on the same:

Allow Self-hosted Integration Runtime to be installed on Virtual Machine Scale Set (VMSS)

All of the feedback you share in these forums will be monitored and reviewed by the Microsoft engineering teams responsible for building Azure.

Hope this will help. Please let us know if any further queries.
