Correct arrangement

  • Install the Azure File Sync agent on Server1
  • Register Server1
  • Add a server endpoint

Explanation

To synchronize files from Server1 to Azure using Azure File Sync, you must first install the Azure File Sync agent on Server1 to enable the sync capability, then register Server1 with the Storage Sync Service to establish a trust relationship between the server and Azure, and finally add a server endpoint within the sync group to define which local folder on Server1 will participate in synchronization. These three steps in sequence represent the complete workflow after the Storage Sync Service and sync group have already been created.
