iSCSI should be on the storage network and it is not recommended to route the iSCSI traffic
To access azure, the firewall should allow HTTPS port (443)
If external DNS server is used, ports for DNS should be open
If external SMTP server is used for notification, port 25 should be open
Flow Of Data With Automated Tiering
SSD
Application or File servers
SAS
Automatically moving data to
the next tier occurs when tiers reach a threshold
for fullness
The least recently
accessed data in the tier is the first to move to
the next tier

SAS

A volume is a container of data and is dynamic in nature Volume
