-# Create Azure SQL managed instance using Kubernetes tools
+# Create Azure Arc-enabled SQL Managed Instance using Kubernetes tools 
 
+This article demonstrates how to deploy Azure SQL Managed Instance for Azure Arc with Kubernetes tools.
 
 ## Prerequisites
 
 You should have already created a [data controller](plan-azure-arc-data-services.md).
 
-To create a SQL managed instance using Kubernetes tools, you will need to have the Kubernetes tools installed.  The examples in this article will use `kubectl`, but similar approaches could be used with other Kubernetes tools such as the Kubernetes dashboard, `oc`, or `helm` if you are familiar with those tools and Kubernetes yaml/json.

 ## Overview
 
-To create a SQL managed instance, you need to create a Kubernetes secret to store your system administrator login and password securely and a SQL managed instance custom resource based on the SqlManagedInstance custom resource definition.

+1. Create a Kubernetes secret to store your system administrator login and password securely
+1. Create a SQL Managed Instance custom resource based on the `SqlManagedInstance` custom resource definition
+
+Define both of these items in a yaml file.
 
 ## Create a yaml file
 
-You can use the [template yaml](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/microsoft/azure_arc/main/arc_data_services/deploy/yaml/sqlmi.yaml) file as a starting point to create your own custom SQL managed instance yaml file.  Download this file to your local computer and open it in a text editor.  It is useful to use a text editor such as [VS Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/download) that support syntax highlighting and linting for yaml files.

-If no storage class is specified for backups, the default storage class in kubernetes is used and if this is not RWX capable, the Arc SQL Managed Instance installation may not succeed.

 ### Customizing the login and password
 
-A Kubernetes secret is stored as a base64 encoded string - one for the username and one for the password.  You will need to base64 encode a system administrator login and password and place them in the placeholder location at `data.password` and `data.username`.  Do not include the `<` and `>` symbols provided in the template.

 ### Customizing the name
 
-The template has a value of 'sql1' for the name attribute.  You can change this but it must be characters that follow the DNS naming standards.  You must also change the name of the secret to match.  For example, if you change the name of the SQL managed instance to 'sql2', you must change the name of the secret from 'sql1-login-secret' to 'sql2-login-secret'

 ### Customizing storage
 
-You can customize the storage classes for storage to match your environment.  If you are not sure which storage classes are available you can run the command `kubectl get storageclass` to view them.  The template has a default value of 'default'.  This means that there is a storage class _named_ 'default' not that there is a storage class that _is_ the default.  You can also optionally change the size of your storage.
