    Please Verify configurations:

    • Ensure your Azure Arc agent is healthy and connected.
    • Confirm that the necessary permissions are in place for Azure Arc to access and manage your SQL Server.
    • Double-check the backup retention days and backup schedule settings you've configured.

     

  • The error encountered when enabling backups in SQL Server on Azure Arc typically reflects a configuration or connectivity issue introduced during relocation. In most cases, the backup extension is unable to access the designated storage path or required permissions have been altered. Reviewing the error logs is critical, but several common causes and resolutions should be considered.
