  1. Register for Azure NetApp Files and NetApp Resource Provider (through the Azure Shell) ( link).

  2. Create an account in Azure NetApp Files ( link).

  3. Set up a capacity pool (a minimum 4TB Standard or Premium, depending on your need) ( link).The following table lists the network configuration requirements for setting up in the cloud. The Dask cluster and Azure NetApp Files must be in the same Azure Virtual Network (VNet) or a peered VNet.
