+## Demo for an online migration from SQL Server 2019 to Azure SQL Managed Instance
+
+This is a demo for an online migration from SQL Server 2019 to Azure SQL Managed Instance using the Managed Instance link feature. Follow all the prerequisites and setup instructions first at <https://github.com/microsoft/bobsql/blob/master/demos/sqlmidemo/readme.md>
+
+## Steps
+
+1. Carefully go through all the steps to prepare your SQL Server 2019 and Azure SQL Managed Instance to use the Managed Instance Link feature: <https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/azure-sql/managed-instance/managed-instance-link-preparation?view=azuresql>
+
+> **Note:** Using the Azure marketplace for SQL Server 2019 automatically applies the latest CU for SQL Server 2019.

 ### Deploy a SQL Server 2019 instance with Azure Virtual Machine.
 
-1. Create a new subnet in the virtual network for the deployed Azure SQL Managed Instance per these instructions. https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/azure-sql/managed-instance/connect-vm-instance-configure?view=azuresql. This is the subnet where the SQL Server 2019 Virtual Machine will be placed.

 1. Now create a new SQL Server 2019 deployment in an Azure Virtual Machine.Use the marketplace to create a SQL Server 2019 Standard Edition on Windows Server 2022.
 
 **Basics**
 
-**Disks/Networking/Management/Monitoring/Advanced**
+- Use the resource group from the Azure SQL Managed Instance deployment
+- Put in a virtual machine name. I used bwsql2019vm.
+- Keep region the same as for the resource group and Azure SQL Managed Instance.
+- For Availability Options choose "No infrastructure redundancy required"
+- For Security type choose Standard
+- For Image choose SQL Server 2019 Standard on Windows Server 2022 - x64 Gen2
+- For size to reduce costs I chose Standard_D8s_v3 which provides 8 vCores and 32GB RAM.
+- Supply a Window admin and password. You will use this to login to the Windows Virtual Machine.
+- For inbound port rules choose the option which matches the security compliance of your organization. Since this is just an example, I use the default of leaving RDP port 3389 allowed. A more secure solution would not to allow 3389 and use Bastion or a virtual network.
+- For Licensing you can choose Azure Hybrid Benefit if you have existing Windows licenses.
+
+**Disks**
+
+Use all the defaults
+
+**Networking**
+
+The portal should fill in the name of the virtual network for Azure SQL Managed Instance and the subnet you created earlier. Leave all other values to defaults.

+**Management/Monitoring/Advanced**
 
 Use all the defaults
 
 **SQL Server settings**
 
-Use all defaults except for Storage to minimize costs for this example I configured data and log to be shared and only chose 512Gb P20 storage. I chose the option for tempdb to be on the local SSD (D: Drive).
