A flax-mill ledger blob is in the Archive tier. A clerk asks for a lifecycle policy that periodically moves it back to Hot on a calendar. What should the developer tell them?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Archive is deep storage with a one-way door from lifecycle’s point of view—you can send blobs down, but lifecycle will not schedule them back up. When someone needs the ledger, the app (or a one-time Set Tier) must rehydrate.
Full Explanation
Microsoft documents that lifecycle management does not support rehydrating blobs from Archive to an online tier. Rehydration is performed with Set Blob Tier (or related rehydrate operations), optionally choosing priority. Soft delete and listing do not rehydrate Archive content on a schedule.
