After connecting for mirroring, I only see undefined

 

With a new SQL Server on vCore and open to the public network, I get this error after connecting:

I tried with a System Assigned Managed Identity and a User Assigned Managed Identity with Fabric API read/write permissions. Both did not work. SQL admin user or my Entra ID user (owner of database) did not make a difference either.

 

Can anyone help out? I'm hoping to make a simple guide and/or demo to show how mirroring can be used.

I found some tutorials online, but they don't describe all the necessary steps, most describe only the steps after seeing the mirror tables.

Yes, it turns out the Fabric capacity had to be on for this feature.

I think I got one step further, before I tried making it in a workspace with Fabric capacity paused. I mean I know it's a Fabric resource, but I heard it's free so I was hoping it's not required to be on.

 

I now tested it with a new workspace that does have F2 capacity on, and my error is clearer:

I will change my configuration back to only system assigned (per the docs) and let our esteemed Fabric forum readers know the results.

Thank you Zhang Tin, I read both of those pages before, but configuring them did not change the error.
