1. Log in to the Azure portal at https://portal.azure.com/.
2. Navigate to the resource group that contains the storage account you want to remediate.
3. Select the storage account from the list of resources.
4. In the left-hand menu, click on “Backup”.
5. In the “Backup” menu, click on “Backup policy”.
6. Click on “Edit”.
7. In the “Policy details” section, select “Geo-redundant” from the “Replication” drop-down menu.
8. Click on “Save”.

​

1. Open the Azure CLI command prompt or terminal.
2. Login to your Azure account using the command:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   az login
   

3. Once you are logged in, set the target subscription using the command:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   az account set --subscription <subscription_id>
   

4. Next, enable Geo-Redundant Backups for the desired resource group using the command:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   az backup vault backup-properties set --backup-management-type AzureIaasVM --resource-group <resource_group_name> --vault-name <vault_name> --backup-storage-redundancy GeoRedundant
   

   Here, replace <resource_group_name> with the name of the resource group where the backup vault is located and <vault_name> with the name of the backup vault.
5. Verify the backup properties using the command:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   az backup vault backup-properties show --backup-management-type AzureIaasVM --resource-group <resource_group_name> --vault-name <vault_name>
   

   This command will display the backup properties for the specified backup vault.
6. Once you have verified that Geo-Redundant Backups have been enabled, you can exit the Azure CLI using the command:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   exit
   

1. Install the Azure SDK for Python using pip:

pip install azure-mgmt-recoveryservicesbackup

2. Import the necessary modules:

from azure.common.credentials import ServicePrincipalCredentials
from azure.mgmt.recoveryservicesbackup import RecoveryServicesBackupClient
from azure.mgmt.recoveryservicesbackup.models import ProtectionIntent

3. Set up the authentication credentials using a service principal:

credentials = ServicePrincipalCredentials(
    client_id='<client_id>',
    secret='<client_secret>',
    tenant='<tenant_id>'
)

4. Instantiate the RecoveryServicesBackupClient using the authentication credentials:

client = RecoveryServicesBackupClient(credentials, '<subscription_id>')

5. Get the list of protection intents:

protection_intents = client.protection_intents.list()

6. Check if Geo-Redundant Backups are enabled for each protection intent:

for protection_intent in protection_intents:
    if protection_intent.properties.backup_management_type == 'AzureIaasVM':
        if not protection_intent.properties.is_geo_redundant:
            # Enable Geo-Redundant Backups
            protection_intent.properties.is_geo_redundant = True
            client.protection_intents.create_or_update(
                protection_intent.name,
                protection_intent
            )

7. Save the changes by calling create_or_update on each protection intent that had Geo-Redundant Backups enabled.
