Question Plesk on Azure disk question

[prattmd]

I have been running the Plesk install in Google Cloud with no issues for about a year and I wanted to try Azure. I am getting nervous now that on both platforms, these OS/boot disks on the linux VMs may go away if the VM dies. I obviously take nightly backups, but what if I wanted to use a managed disk option on Azure?
How do you tell Plesk to use that mount point instead of the boot disk? If the initial Plesk install also puts MaraDB on the boot disk, how can that be moved as well?
Am I overthinking this?

well, interestingly, I deleted my Azure VM and was able to boot up a new VM with the OS disk. So somehow it must be a managed persistent disk? Thoughts?

ok, i answered my own question. It appears that all new OS drives are now managed persistent storage in Azure. No worries I hope.
