What happens when Azure Worker Role VM goes down in middle of a computation process

Hi,
I wanted to know what happens if the Azure Fabric controller decides to bring down an Azure Worker Role VM during a computation process within the worker role ? Does the new VM that FC spins up start from the same place where it left off (when the VM
was brought down). As per my understanding, answer is "NO" because an Azure VM is stateless. If we want that the new VM starts from the same place where it left off, we need to save the state and read it from there, when the VM starts (probably
somewhere in the RoleEntryPoint class).
can someone please confirm my understanding ?

Hi,
You are right.
Azure PaaS instances are stateless. 
If the instance that is just configured were to fail and Azure spun up a replacement instance, all the work that you have done would not carry over.  
To know more about it, you might want to refer to the link provided below

Hope this helps !

  • HT4865 what happens when one of the ipods goes missing? and all iphones and pads are on same icloud account?

    had ipod touch set up with icloud advised after purchasing another ipod and iphone to put all on same icloud account which has been great. Now one of the ipods has stolen, icloud found it and located it. trouble is now every e-mail is sent to all devices and i cant think of a way to keep track of the stolen one without deleting account. i need to get this ipod back as it was bought for someone special and wants it back. dont want to claim from home insurance. Also they were all set up with same apple account. I can face time the ipod but does it ring on all?
    thanx

    I have phoned the police, they were very helpful and sent one police car to address of where the stolen one is suppose to be and anouthe police to my home address in the hope that when we send messages through icloud that the police can hear it. unfortunatly i dont know if both ipod are ringing. every e=mail ie this one also goes to both ipods.because they are both on same icloud and apple address. how can i still keep track on stolen ipod and change icloud id on the replacement.

  • What actions will trigger azure worker role reboot

    Hi team,
    we have a application host in worker role, the worker process will create a new process if it receive a request, 
    i we want to update the worker and keep new process still working smoothly, what we should do during the Udate.
    we did some test for this and found that when updating the worker role via portal, the worker role VM will not reboot, 
    will all update not cause worker role reboot?
    another question, what actions will cause worker role reboot,so that we could avoid them when doing update.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi,
     Thanks for Posting. I see that no one in the forum community has answered the question.  hope the following resource points you in the right direction.
     There are certain implicit and explicit factors that may force the runtime to reboot or re-launch the role instances. Implicit factors are internal to Azure environment and explicit factors are those that are initiated through the change in configuration
    files or by performing an in-place upgrade.
    Refer to this link :

  • I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imac so I could install Windows 7 Home Premium and had no trouble everthing is working fine the only question I have is is there a benefit to migrating the 2 together and what happens when I do Thanks.  Ricco

    I recently downloaded Parallels 9 to my imack so I could install Windows 7 Home Premiumwith no problem and everthing is working fine, and I was thinking of Migrating the 2 2 and was wondering what benefits there would be and what happens when I do.

    Windows 7 will peer down through the VM and remember what hardware the VM is installed on. Migrate the VM to different Mac hardware, and on first boot, Windows 7 will advise you that you are not using genuine Microsoft Windows. It will then treat you as though it believes you misappropriated it.

  • Lost my iPod, remotely locked it through iCloud. What happens when the battery goes out?

    Hello!
    I lost my Ipod, but managed to locate and lock it remotely through Find my iPod and iCloud. It was located once, but hasn't been located again in the last four days. I think the battery may have run out. What happens when the battery is charged and the iPod turned back on? Does the lock and everything else that can be controlled with Find my iPod still apply?
    Thank you!

    Yes, because when you remotely lock the iPod via Find my iPod, the lock code is set as the lock code that you would use to unlock the iPod if you used a passcode normally. As long as the iPod is still connected to your Apple ID, Find my iPod should work as log as the iPod is connected to wifi.

    Yes and no, depending on which types of documents you have.  Word processing and spreadsheets go to Pages and Numbers respectively.  There is no equivalent for draw and database in iWork.  Others have reported varying success with converting those documents to third party apps, however.

  • What happens to my work when I cancel my subscription?

    Assuming I have subscribed to Creative Cloud for some years, and some circumstance leads me to cancel my subscription, what happens to my work after cancellation. How do I open these native files (.indd, .ai, .psd) ?
    If I am a subscriber to Creative Cloud, can I share native files with someone who has CS 6 or will the files be incompatible?

    Pauls Sloss the following information is available within the Creative Cloud FAQ - http://www.adobe.com/in/products/creativecloud/faq.html
    Can the new CC applications export to CS6? 
    Many of the Creative Cloud desktop applications provide the ability to export files to the Creative Suite 6 version of that same application. This allows you to export your work to Creative Suite 6, which is available via a perpetual software license.
    Adobe plans to continue to support the ability to export to Creative Suite 6 in applications where it is available when it ships.
    New features added to the desktop applications after Creative Suite 6 may not be supported in the exported file, or supported by the Creative Suite 6 application.
    Which CC applications support export to CS6?
    The following applications support the ability to export to the CS6 versions of the application:
    Photoshop
    InDesign®
    Illustrator
    Flash® Professional
    Dreamweaver®
    Applications not listed here may not support exporting to Creative Suite 6, and may not do so in future releases.
    New features added to the above list after Creative Suite 6 may not be supported in the exported file, or supported by the Creative Suite 6 application.
    What happens if I decide to stop my membership? 
    You will continue to have access to free Creative Cloud member benefits, and if you saved your work to your computer you will continue to have access to those files. You will no longer have access to the Creative Cloud desktop applications or most of the services that are components of a Creative Cloud membership.
    If you purchased an annual individual membership plan and you cancel after the first 30 days but before meeting the 12-month commitment date, you will be charged 50% of the remaining amount left on your contract.
    What happens to my files in the cloud if I cancel my membership? 
    If you cancel your paid membership you will still have access to the free level of membership, which provides 2GB of storage. You will have a 90-day grace period to download your files to your local machine, and delete online files to get your cloud storage down to 2GB (or to purchase additional storage separately if you choose). If you leave more than 2GB of files in your cloud storage for more than 90 days, you may lose access to some or all of your files.

  • What happens when Time Machine starts to fill up a drive?

    Using Time Machine on a partitioned External HD has been an absolute snap! I love the app. My main disappointment with it is that it has no literature on HOW it works, and no real ways for me to set different controls for it other than on and off.
    My question is that what happens when a drive starts to get full? I have about 30 gigs left on the partition, and I am wondering what Time Machine is going to do. Does it just delete the oldest material, or does it simply fill up and tell me to look at everything on there and decide to clear it all off. I hate that I don't know what will happen.
    -Jon

    From what I've read (I've not gotten a drive full so I can't speak from experience), when the TM drive gets full, it will notify you that it's going to start deleting the oldest backups to make space for the new ones. This general behavior is mentioned in the Mac Help for Time Machine, though it makes no mention about notifying you before it deletes the old backups, so I'm not sure about that part.

  • What happened when multiple audio players start at the same time?

    Hi,everyone!
    I am developing a game, using JMF to play sound.
    These sound are stored in mp3 files.
    In order to decode mp3 files, I installed JMF and mp3-plugin( jmf-2_1_1e-windows-i586.exe , javamp3-1_0.exe).
    In the Game, a background music play back repeatly.When EndOfMediaEvent happened, I setMediaTime(new Time(0)) and then start().It works well.
    There are several sound-effects,may start at any time,
    so 2 or more sounds may play back at the same time,
    and then Strange things happened.
    Those sound-effects, usually short, can not play back inextenso.
    They lose some beginning part, the length of the part is not constant.
    i.e. Audio should start at MediaTime 0, but now they start at MediaTime x, x >= 0,
    not only that, sometimes, Audio process bar runs, but no sound heared.
    I do not know what is happening.
    So please help me, thanks a lot.
    The way that I use Players:
    initialize:
    create realized players from mp3 files
    prefetch them
    finalize:
    deallocate not null players
    then close them
    using:
    player.setMediaTime(new Time(0))
    then player.start()
    My Environment:
    Windows XP, java 1.4.10, JMF2.1.1, MP3-plugin1.0

    This is very strange, difficult to guess the cause... never had such an issue. Normally when the object to which the audio is attached disappears the audio stops. So in your case going to a next slide should stop the audio of the previous slide. Same with object audio.
    Do you have the different audio clips (one per slide) in the Library? Could you try to delete the audio on the slide and drag it again from the Library to see if you have the same result? And what happens when you attach the audio clip to an object on the slide (you can create a totally transparent rectangle with no stroke that will not be visible to attach the audio).

  • What happens when the CC trial ends? What happens when offline?

    I need Lightroom to work offline on my laptop. What happens if I need to sign in to CC when there is no interned connection and what happens when the CC trial ends on both my laptop and desktop?

    Thanks for answering. I have the standalone version of Lightroom 6 on my Windows 7 64 bit desktop. A number of times when have tried to open the program, the Adobe Application Manager has popped up requiring me to sign in even though I had not knowingly signed out. Lightroom will not launch unless I am signed in. Frequently when Lightroom launches, I see a "Server Busy" message telling me to "switch to the other program" without telling me which program to switch to. I have pinned the AAM to my notification area and have unchecked the "Show OS Notifications box" to see if the "Server Busy" message goes away. So far everything seems to be okay
    Again, thanks for answering me

  • What happens when you get Error 1905??

    ERROR 1905 MODULE C:/PROGRAM FILES/ITUNES/ITUNESMINIPLAYER.DLL

    Okay...so what do I do? After this it goes to "stopping services", but says it is unable to do that. Then when I open I-tunes it says that the part of the program where the computer connects to the ipod was not installed correctly. this is soooo frustrating. my brother's had an ipod shuffle for about 2 years so itunes was already installed. i was just trying to update it so my ipod video could be read.
    iPod with Video   Windows XP  

    Sorry no but here is some info anyway,
    We increased MaxPermSize from 192 to 512
    We also increased min and max JVM Heap size to 768 and 2048 respectively.
    Since then I think we have not experienced this problem more than once.
    We also have one server with the default parameters and it seems to work fine.
    I believe that size, and number of simultaneous request/responses have an impact  on this.
    We will now install the latest updates and after that decide whether to start logging jvm activities or not.
    Best regards

  • WHAT HAPPENS WHEN...........

    I have a dual boot set up with 98se and XP. The 98 drive is hurtin and is gonna give up the ghost soon. What happens when I replace it with a new drive? Will I have to Reactive XP? I hope not. BIGDADDY51CT. Any info?

    Hi bigdaddy,
    Have you installed the other drive after the XP disk was installed?
    If the stuff worked well in that case you can easily change disks, coz it worked in the past.
    Have a look at on which drive the files :NTDLR, boot.ini, ntdetect, are because that's the drive XP is booting from. That is your actual C:\.
    If those files are on the defective drive you have a problem because I don't know if you can copy them to another drive and make them working.
    If you are going to try and copy you CANNOT boot to XP and copy them coz they are locked, make sure to see hidden files in the explorer else you won't be able to see them.
    This is not going to be easy so good luck,
    @lbert

  • What happens when HTTPS communication fails during certificate check?

    Hello Experts,
    I have a scenario where a Bapi functionality(server proxy) is exposed as a webservice .
    So scenario will be SOAP -> XI -> Proxy (calls a BAPI)
    Here we are going to use HTTPS (SSL).
    I would like to know :
    What happens when a check for certificate validation fails in XI? It may be due to invalid certificate, expired certificate or a request from unauthorised user-
    - Will it be raised as a exception and we need to do some  configuration to inform it back to Sender?
    - Will the message fail in Moni with red flag ?
    - Alerts will be created ?
    Please share your experiences and expert sugestions.
    Thanks in Advance!!
