    Hi @Jena, Tapas Kumar (893) (EXT) ,

    if my understanding is correct, you want to change/migrate the Storage Account type (from Premium to Standard) and the redundancy (from ZRS to LRS)?

    If so: As far as I know there is no option to do this change/migration. The only option might be to create a new Storage Account with the type and redundancy as required and migrate the data from the old Storage Account to the new Storage Account using AzCopy or Storage Explorer.

    (If the reply was helpful please don't forget to upvote and/or accept as answer, thank you)
