Migrating Azure Storage Accounts for AudioCodes SBC Deployment from GPv1 to GPv2
Microsoft has announced the retirement of legacy general-purpose v1 (GPv1) storage accounts, requiring customers to migrate to general-purpose v2 (GPv2) by October 13, 2026.
While this may sound like a simple backend change, some environments still rely on older deployments including virtual machines and network appliances that were originally provisioned years ago.
In my case, I recently revisited an older Azure deployment running an AudioCodes Mediant VE Session Border Controller (SBC) for Microsoft Teams Direct Routing. The SBC was still backed by a legacy GPv1 storage account, making it a perfect candidate to walk through the migration process.

Initial Situation
The environment was fairly typical for earlier Azure-based SBC deployments:
- Virtual Machine: AudioCodes Mediant VE SBC
- Purpose: Microsoft Teams Direct Routing
- Deployment age: Several years old
- Storage Account Type: GPv1 (legacy)
- VM Disk Type: Managed Disks
At the time of deployment, GPv1 was standard and widely used. However, with Microsoft now retiring GPv1 storage accounts, action is required to avoid future disruptions.
Important Clarification: Does This Affect the SBC?
Before performing the migration, one key question arises:
Will changing the storage account impact the running SBC or the VM itself?
Short answer: No (in most cases)
Here’s why:
- Azure VMs use Managed Disks, which are independent of the storage account type
- The storage account is typically only used for:
- Boot diagnostics
- Logging
- Optional file storage
So, this means:
- The SBC runtime is not directly affected
- There is no need to redeploy the VM
- The migration is generally low-risk
Why You Should Migrate?
Microsoft clearly states that:
- GPv1 accounts will be retired on October 13, 2026
- Existing accounts will be automatically migrated if no action is taken
- GPv2 provides:
- Access to new Azure Storage features
- Improved performance
- Support for zonal redundancy (ZRS)
From a consulting perspective: In my opinion, it’s better to migrate proactively rather than rely on automatic changes.
Performing the Upgrade (GPv1 to GPv2)
The migration itself is straightforward and easy.
Step 1: Open the Storage Account
Navigate to:
- Azure Portal
- Storage Accounts
- Your GPv1 Account
Step 2: Upgrade Configuration
In the Configuration section, you’ll find the option to upgrade the account type.
- Change from: General-purpose v1 to General-purpose v2
Step 3: Confirm the Upgrade
- Review the changes
- Confirm the upgrade
Step 4: Validate the Result
After a few moments:
- Storage account type shows GPv2
- No interruption to the VM or SBC as far as I could see
Observations from my migration
From my test with the AudioCodes SBC:
- ✅ No downtime observed: The SBC continued running without any interruption.
- ✅ No impact on voice services: Active calls and signaling were unaffected.
- ✅ No reconfiguration required: All existing settings (diagnostics, logging) remained intact.
Things to Watch Out For
Even though the migration is simple, there are a few considerations:
- ⚠️ Pricing changes
- GPv2 uses a different pricing model (e.g., access tiers)
- Costs may slightly increase depending on usage
- ⚠️ Access Tier settings
- New options like Hot / Cool / Archive
- Review defaults after migration
- ⚠️ Legacy integrations
- Rare, but older scripts or tools may assume GPv1 behavior
Conclusion,opinion and summary
Migrating from GPv1 to GPv2 is:
- ✅ Simple
- ✅ Low risk
- ✅ Required by Microsoft
For workloads like an AudioCodes Mediant VE SBC on Azure, the impact is minimal because the VM itself is not directly tied to the storage account.
The key takeaway:
Even in legacy deployments, this migration can typically be done without downtime or service impact.
If you are managing older Azure environments especially in Teams Direct Routing scenarios it’s worth reviewing:
- Storage account types
- Public IP SKUs
- Load balancer configurations
Many of these legacy components are now being phased out, and proactive upgrades help avoid last-minute pressure.

Microsoft Teams: Automatic Call Recording & Transcription
In August 2026 Microsoft has planned to start the rollout to configure automatic call recording and transcription for Teams Call Queues. Don’t be afraid. It’s off by default as far as I read and a Teams Admin must enable it per Call Queue.
The complete announcement can be read in the roadmap ID 565215 and in the message center notification MC1401299.
Source: Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 565215Configuration, enabling it, is no technical complicated task but compliance and regulation must be clarified to ensure it is implemented the correctly, aligned with regulations and compliance. It should be enabled only on Teams Call Queues which the feature required and not solved by another (third-party) solution.

Unlock Efficiency with Teams Phone Agent for AI-Powered Calls
In the Teams Phone space there was another interesting announcement recently which caught my attention: Teams Phone Agent. It is available for organizations participating in the Frontier program. I.e. Frontier companies are organizations leveraging the latest innovation in AI with early feature access to advance business outcomes earlier.
The Teams Phone Agent could add some more benefits and value to your organization’s telephony. You could make it work for you 24×7 and reduce the requirement that a person needs to answer each and every call because an agent could do this. Let me summarize and point out some highlights of the Teams Phone Agent.
What is the Teams Phone Agent?
The Teams Phone Agent is a new AI-powered capability that should help organizations to handle phone calls more efficiently especially during peak times. Combined with custom voice agents built in Microsoft Copilot Studio, businesses could automate specific phone calls and use cases, reduce wait times, and deliver faster resolutions. E.g. appointment scheduling, Q&A support, intelligent routing and transferring the caller to the appropriate, available callee, multi-lingual support. This can be accomplished by the Teams Phone Agent with its specific skills.
For more specialized use cases you can build custom voice agents in Copilot Studio. E.g. for to check order status, billing inqueries.
A Teams Phone Agent can get a Teams phone number and can get called directly.
What are the requirements for Teams Phone Agent?
Let me summarize the key requirements to get started with the Teams Phone Agent. Please note that these can be subject to change at any time and are just provided as-is.
- Microsoft Teams Phone (System) incl. PSTN connectivity, licenses etc.
- Participation in the Microsoft Frontier program (early access)
- No additional licenses during public preview/frontier early access (as far as I read and understood?)
- Teams Admin Center access to configure it
- Copilot Studio for building and managing custom voice agents, knowledge bases, and orchestration logic…
- Copilot Studio licenses for administration/configuration/…
- Copilot Studio billing, e.g. consumption-based billing
Other considerations to keep in mind before using Teams Phone Agent?
Please note, using AI, an AI-agent might require a legal and compliance check before any implementation, especially in Germany. Regulations like GDPR, German Telecommunications Act (TKG) and others might be relevant and influence planning, configuration, implementation and operation. A Organization and IT staff remains responsible for how the AI is configured, what data it processes, and how callers are informed etc. Please involve and consult your legal advisor, data protection office, worker’s council, … and so on. This is a tip, a note but no legal advice at all.
Conclusion, opinion and summary
I like to utilize what I’ve got, so in case Teams calling is already in use, no third-party solution covering call flows and call interactions it might make sense to evaluate Teams Phone Agent, dive in a bit deeper to find out if your use cases for phone and calling scenarios benefit. In my experience companies are rarely having enough 24×7 people at the right time available for answering calls across different departments? That’s why the Teams Phone Agent could help with easy as well as more advanced requests coming in by phone call. Especially if you have something already available and running on Copilot Studio you might extend the use to callers as well?

Microsoft Teams Built-in Agent Governance
In the era of AI, agentic AI, developments and changes are released at a rapid pace. Staying on top of things is a challenge especially governing agents here and there. For Microsoft Teams a new capability to centrally govern built-in agents was recently announced as you can read in the Microsoft 365 message center notification MC1387573. It says that Teams admins get controls for Teams built-in agents to manage these by utilizing policies, user or group access assignments while also having more visibility for compliance purposes.
Source: Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564766Currently the change is not available. At least not in lab tenant. The roadmap as well as the message center notification says that the rollout is scheduled to start in July 2026.
You will notice this in your tenant, your Teams Admin Center, as soon as you get a new menu on the left blade Teams admin center > Teams apps > Built-in Teams agents. Based on the message center notification it look very similar to the Teams app management.
Before and after the capability arrives in your Microsoft 365 tenant and Teams Admin Center there are few things you should do, three of them which are rather important are:
- review your current org-wide app settings for Microsoft apps
current org-wide app settings are no longer applied to built-in Teams agents - review and update agent-level permissions and configurations with the new controls
- review settings and persons for this change
Conclusion, opinion and summary
In my opinion this can be a beneficial capability if you, as a Teams Admin, are required to configure more granular access and policies for built-in Teams agents. A common use case could be that you might want to introduce, allow and deploy built-in agents on your terms, step-by-step or in phases in conjunction with a suited change and adoption plan to ensure users know how to use these agents.
However, I guess that many companies with the licenses might already have all of built-in agents enabled, not disabled? Now switching the approach, disabling built-in agents and planning to deploy these later on should be done with proper preparation and cautiously because turning it off might cause users being frustrated and irritated. Users might wonder: Why is something is gone out of a sudden, why was it taken away and now I have to ask for it? Better keep that in mind before implementing controls and governance after built-in agents might be widely in use.

Microsoft Teams Direct Routing SIP endpoints test
In this post, I would like to highlight that Microsoft has scheduled a “24-hour test that switches Microsoft Teams Direct Routing SIP endpoints to certificates issued by a new Certificate Authority (CA)” as communicated via the Microsoft 365 Message Center MC1387525.
Starting June 30, 2026 (9:00 AM UTC), Microsoft will run a test lasting up to 72 hours due to staged regional rollout to transition Direct Routing SIP endpoints to new CA-issued certificates. This aims to improve certificate lifecycle management and maintain secure connectivity. During the test window, organizations using Session Border Controllers (SBCs) for Teams Direct Routing may experience a mix of old and new certificates, as traffic is gradually migrated. If SBCs do not trust the required Root CAs, TLS connection failures may occur, which could lead to disruptions in PSTN calling. So ensure you certificates, certificate chains etc. are alright on your Teams Direct Routing SBCs.
The change will be applied automatically by Microsoft and reverted after the test period. Organizations are required to proactively verify and if necessary update SBC trust stores, inform relevant voice and support teams, and closely monitor connectivity and TLS handshake behavior throughout the test to mitigate potential service impact.
