As part of the process of implementing application-consistent backup of Azure Linux virtual machines, customers have to configure permissions for many files, including VMSnapshotScriptPluginConfig.json. Which user/s should have "execute" permissions to this file?

Root user only

All users

No users

2.

How does implementing application-consistent backup of Azure virtual machines differ between Windows and Linux?

There's no difference, the process is handled identically in both cases.

Linux requires the user to write their own pre-script and post-script framework.

Linux doesn't support application-consistent backup.

The following steps are suggested for taking a storage snapshot of a production SAP HANA workload, with an XFS file system spanning four Azure virtual disks. 1. Prepare the HANA snapshot. 2. Create all necessary blob snapshots on Azure. 3. Confirm the HANA snapshot. Can the process be relied upon to provide a consistent snapshot?

Yes, the process should result in a consistent snapshot.

No, the user must shut down SAP HANA before taking the snapshot, or the snapshot won't be consistent.

No, the user should also freeze the file system before creating the blob snapshots on Azure, and unfreeze it afterwards.
