This diagram shows a typical SAP NetWeaver HA architecture with a simple mount. The "sapmnt" and "saptrans" file systems are deployed on Azure native NFS: NFS shares on Azure Files or NFS volumes on Azure NetApp Files. A Pacemaker cluster protects the SAP central services. The clustered VMs are behind an Azure load balancer. The Pacemaker cluster doesn't manage the file systems, in contrast to the classic Pacemaker configuration.

Keep in mind that the Azure NetApp Files resources and the Azure VMs must be in the same Azure virtual network or in peered Azure virtual networks. This example uses two Azure NetApp Files volumes: `sapNW1` and `trans`. The file paths that are mounted to the corresponding mount points are:
