Help with initial HA setup

Hi guys,

And thanks in advance for the great templates.

Can you please share your guidance for a larger sized deployment? Here are some details around the deployment:

average number of concurrent users your site will see: 300
maximum level of concurrent/simultaenous users your site needs to support: 3000
HA is needed
any other attributes specific to your deployment: planning to use Azure Files for HA

I slightly modified the azuredeploy-large-ha.json and did some tests using the JSON below, do you think this is enough performance wise? The template uses Azure Files for HA as far as I understand, and I do see the Storage Account being created but I don't see a share name created on the af storage account the template deployed. I believe I'm missing something, or maybe (most probably) it's all good but it's my lack of knowledge on Moodle and spefically HA that makes me overthink.

Question: =============== I've pointed CNAME record to lb-xrwgkp.westeurope.cloudapp.azure.com but when I go to http://www.rslab.dns-cloud.net I get the "Welcome to nginx!"", if using https://www.rslab.dns-cloud.net I get a ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT, what am I doing wrong?

Welcome to nginx! If you see this page, the nginx web server is successfully installed and working. Further configuration is required. For online documentation and support please refer to nginx.org. Commercial support is available at nginx.com. Thank you for using nginx. Thanks in advance.
