I would like to have a cloud based server backup storage implemented via
Server Backup - save files to a given directory (from any of my servers)
Use Microsoft Azure Explorer to copy the files into an Azure Blob Cool storage account (or via any other method if required - but I prefer a GUI method instead of a command line one).
I tried the above, but I get errors, about blob types not supported.
Is there any way to do this easily - and have the data accesible for restore (copy back to a directory) in case of a catastrophic failure that prevents me from using my local backups (I would do the online backups once a month or so, and use them as a tertiary level backup).
Thanks for any help

Do you want to manual back up the server every time ?

When you upload using Microsoft Azure storage explorer, you can choose the data type.
Make sure it is set to Block blob, and remove the convert vhd to page blob.
