Correct 1 - storage1, storage2, storage3 Lifecycle management policies are supported for block blobs and append blobs in general-purpose v2, premium block blob, and Blob Storage accounts. 2 - storage2 Only storage accounts that are configured for LRS, GRS, or RA-GRS support moving blobs to the archive tier. The archive tier isn't supported for ZRS, GZRS, or RA-GZRS accounts. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/lifecycle-management-overview https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/access-tiers-overview

Excellent answer, and thanks for the references. I'd like to share something I've just realised, in case someone gets confused by the fact that Premium BlockBlobStorage does support lifecycle management BUT does not support tiers (mentioned in the same reference under Rule actions): lifecycle management != tiering! So it would seem LM is supported by premium block blob accounts, but limited to just deletion rules...

Correct  Azure storage offers different access tiers, allowing you to store blob object data in the most cost-effective manner.  Tiers are a way to organize your data based on how frequently it will be accessed and how long it will be retained, with the end goal of optimising cost. NOTES: -Hot/Cool/Archive tiering applies to 'blobs,’ not files/queues/tables (other performance options exist for these) -Further, Setting the access tier is only allowed on Block Blobs. They are not supported for Append and Page Blobs. -Blobs in GPV2 storage account can be set to Hot/Cool/Archive. Premium Block Blob storage account - Data stored in a premium block blob storage account cannot be tiered to hot, cool, or archive using Set Blob Tier or using Azure Blob Storage lifecycle management.

Lifecycle policies allowed also on BlockBlob Storage but only Delete function - not tier change. Archive Tier is supported in regions with asynchronous replication Asynchronous implies non-immediate replicate = LRS and GRS LRS and GRS replicate with a delay ZRS and GZRS replicate IMMEDIATELY

Correct. A good way to memorize. Lifecycle not dependent on Redundancy strategy. Rather, it is limited by BlockBlobs and AppendBlobs in general. (So, v1,v2, premium,etc). Archive is not allowed whenever there is a Zone redundancy involved. Any Redundancy that has a "Z" is currently not supported.

Lifecycle limitations Tiering is not yet supported in a premium block blob storage account. For all other accounts, tiering is allowed only on block blobs and not for append and page blobs. A lifecycle management policy must be read or written in full. Partial updates are not supported. Each rule can have up to 10 case-sensitive prefixes and up to 10 blob index tag conditions. If you enable firewall rules for your storage account, lifecycle management requests may be blocked. You can unblock these requests by providing exceptions for trusted Microsoft services. For more information, see the Exceptions section in Configure firewalls and virtual networks. A lifecycle management policy can't change the tier of a blob that uses an encryption scope. The delete action of a lifecycle management policy won't work with any blob in an immutable container. With an immutable policy, objects can be created and read, but not modified or deleted. For more information, see Store business-critical blob data with immutable storage.

So am I correct that in case a Storage V2 case that happens to be set as ZRS, although the Lifecycele Management is supported on the Storage v2, but because of the ZRS, the LM will lack of the support to archive to archived tier. Am I right?

I'm not even sure if there is even a sound reasoning as to why zone-redundant is not supported by archive tier. This sounds absolutely arbitrary to me.
